Journal of the American Revolution is the leading source of knowledge about the American Revolution and Founding Era. We feature smart, groundbreaking research and well-written narratives from expert writers. Our work has been featured by the New York Times, TIME magazine, History Channel, Discovery Channel, Smithsonian, Mental Floss, NPR, and more. 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.
