The Alliance for Texas History is pleased to announce the creation of a new publication, the Journal of Texas History. The JTxH will showcase the history of Texas and the Greater Southwest and will include the many histories of its people and culture.

Serving as co-editors are Rebecca Sharpless, professor of history at Texas Christian University, and Benjamin H. Johnson, professor of history at Loyola University Chicago. Felipe Hinojosa, professor of history at Baylor University, will serve as the book review editor. A public history review editor will also be selected. An additional group of scholars with a wide range of expertise has been appointed to serve as members of the Editorial Board.

With this announcement, the Alliance begins a process that will soon showcase the best work on Texas history in all aspects. Our outstanding editorial board will ensure that the Journal of Texas History fosters inclusivity and excellence in ideas and methodology. The journal will be an open-access publication made publicly available through Digital Commons and the support of our hosts at the University of Texas at Arlington Libraries.
