The JTxH is published by the Alliance for Texas History (atxh.org). The Alliance formed in March 2024, organized by scholars, researchers, public historians, and others committed to history done right.

Texas’s population has doubled over the past forty years, yet the number of scholarly journals devoted to the state’s history has remained roughly the same. In the meantime, Texas has grown more diverse, and whole new fields and methodologies have emerged in the historical profession. We believe, then, that there is room—and a real need—for another journal to tell the many stories of Texas and Texans. We are proud to join with our colleagues at other historical organizations in telling those stories. 

Rebecca Sharpless, professor of history at Texas Christian University, is editor of the journal. Jeff Roche and Kenna Archer serve as associate editors. Carlos Blanton is the Book Review editor, and Justin Randolph is the Public History Editor. Click here to see the full Editorial Board.
