The Journal of Texas History, a publication of the Alliance for Texas History, seeks manuscripts on all aspects of Texas history. The journal is online and open access, with reasonably priced print-on-demand availability for those who would like a printed volume.

The journal is hosted by our partner, the University of Texas at Arlington Libraries, and is available at https://mavmatrix.uta.edu/journaltexashistory/.

Submissions should reflect the diversity in historical scholarship about Texas while speaking to a broad readership. The journal will publish high-quality, authoritative, and innovative articles based on original research and sound methodology.

Manuscripts should be approximately 8,000 – 10,000 words in length, including notes. They should follow the Chicago Manual of Style, 17th or 18th edition.

All manuscripts will undergo a thorough double-blind peer review process. We will not consider previously published texts (in whole or in part) or those that are currently under consideration for publication in another journal.

For more information about the journal and to meet the editorial board, visit www.jtxh.org. Email your questions or proposals to submissions@jtxh.org.
