American Monthly

American Monthly magazine was the original official monthly magazine published by the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR). Later titles were Daughters of the American Revolution Magazine, and The National Historical Magazine.[1] In 2001, the NSDAR split the content into two magazines, a new periodical called American Spirit, containing "articles pertaining to American history, historic preservation, patriotism, genealogy and education",[2][3] and Daughters of the American Revolution Newsletter, a newsletter covering members' concerns from national headquarters.[4]

Ellen Hardin Walworth, one of the original four founders of the DAR, was the initial editor of the magazine. She was the periodical's editor from the spring of 1892 until July 1894.[5]
