North American Review 1894, Bound Originals, Literary Magazine For Sale

North American Review was founded in Boston in 1815 by its first editor, William Tudor (1779-1830), and other members of the Anthology Club. It was their intention to rival the leading British magazines.
Until the Atlantic Monthly was founded in 1857, the North American Review was the foremost magazine in the US. In 1878, it moved to New York City, where publication continued until 1940, when its production was stopped as a result of its owner’s scandalous wartime activities. In 1964, it was officially revived by Iowa poet Robert Dana at Cornell College, who then served as its editor for four years.
In 1968, when Cornell College decided to sell the magazine, it was purchased by the University of Northern Iowa (the year before, UNI had changed from a state college to a university). Poet and fiction writer Robley Wilson was appointed as the North America Review’s new editor, who continued to edit the magazine until his retirement in 2000. Co-editors Vince Gotera and Grant Tracey were appointed in the same year. It is a premier, award-winning tri-annual publication featuring contemporary fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, and visual art, with a focus on environmental, multicultural, and social issues.
