The Journal of Urban History is a bimonthly peer-reviewed academic journal covering the field of urban studies. The editor-in-chief is David R. Goldfield (University of North Carolina at Charlotte). It was established in 1974 and is published by SAGE Publications in association with the Urban History Association.
History
The journal published its first issue in November 1974. Raymond A. Mohl served as editor from the inaugural issue until the position was passed on to Blaine Brownwell in 1977.[1] Mohl's first editorial noted that the journal would necessarily encompass a variety of subjects, methodologies, and interpretations of urbanity since the emerging field of urban history was, as an editor described it, a "big tent."
