The point of view kept in mind has been to gather material for the use of one who would write a history of American popular magazines. The popular magazine has been understood as that weekly or monthly publication which is commonly read and which is known for its general scope and inclusive- ness. No periodical of any special nature has been in- cluded, such as technical, educational, or religious. In the case of some which may seem to be devoted to one line of literature, as science in Popular Science Monthly, or arts and crafts in Craftsman, it will readily be recog- nized that those periodicals are making a decided effort to popularize their subjects and therefore deserve to .be classed as popular magazines. Aside from this distinction, the inclusion has been deter- mined largely by the available material. While some magazines have been extensively written about in their own or contemporary publications, others have almost no recorded history. Thus while the Independent, Outlook, and Atlantic are fully discussed in the articles entered under their respective titles. Review of Reviews and the American Magazine are mentioned only in in- clusive articles. Some of the most interesting and valuable material will be found in articles written about a group of editors or of magazines which have not been analyzed for the individual headings because of the unavoidable length of the biblliography. Wherever possible the sketch of an editor has been put under the heading of the magazine with which he is associated. The most apparent thing about the bibliography as it now stands is its incompleteness. For this reason a word should be said to indicate the ground that may fairly be regarded as covered and that which has not been entered. It will be noticed immediately that most of the entries are periodical articles. The compiler believes that these references have been approximately covered through the aids used. The book and analytical entries, however, are not so well assembled. No books have been found exclusively on magazines; there are a few in which pages or chapters are devoted to editors and publishers. These have been discovered through trade catalogues, indexes, or incidental mention in other articles. No effort has been made to search out biographical ac- counts of all the editors and publishers in all possible places. Only those listed under the name of the maga- zine with which they are connected, or those mentioned in some other article so listed, have been verified and included. The obvious reference books such as encyclopedias, special cyclopedias, and biographical dictionaries, have been entirely neglected. So have government documents in which it is thought there may be found articles on the postal rate discussion, at least. In the search for bibliographies on the subject, innu- merable references have been found, but the so-called bibliography of periodicals proved in most cases to be a check-list of some large library or a union list of all the periodicals in the. libraries in a given locality. None of these have been included, as they make no distinction between American and foreign periodicals, and give no annotations.
