Journal of the American Revolution is the leading source of knowledge about the American Revolution and Founding Era.

Journal of the American Revolution also produces annual hardcover volumes, a branded book series, and the podcast, Dispatches
On this day, the concept for Journal of the American Revolution was created. It started as a napkin sketch that Todd Andrlik presented to Hugh T. Harrington following the media tour for Andrlik’s Reporting the Revolutionary War book. After a few months of planning and preparation, the first article was published in January 2013. A bit more about our history can be found here and here.
