HISTORY Magazine
History, the magazine of the Royal Australian Historical Society, is a quarterly publication that provides articles of general historical interest, developments in historical research, book notes, forthcoming events, and other relevant news.
Each issue is edited by a guest editor responsible for sourcing articles from contributors. The RAHS, therefore, does not accept unsolicited submissions for the magazine.
