Abstract

Welcome to the inaugural issue of the Journal of 20th Century Media History. Although it has taken longer than expected to get this project underway, we are proud to see the journal go live for the first time. I think readers will agree that the three research articles and five book reviews included here are important contributions to the field of media history. We want this journal to emerge as a respected home for quality scholarship and I think we are establishing a solid foundation with our first effort. For me personally, it has been exciting to work with the authors and reviewers as we prepared the issue for publication. Our plan all along has been to publish twice per year, so now it is time to shift our attention to Spring 2024. I hope readers of the journal will consider either submitting their own work or recommending the Journal of 20th Century Media History to colleagues and students in the field. We have a few manuscripts under consideration, but it would be nice to have additional submissions on hand as we plan for the future. Please see the journal’s website for more information about the range of suitable topics and instructions on how to submit a manuscript. We are also looking for volunteers to review books. Email me at rabe@marshall.edu to get a current list of available titles.
