Guide to the Hispanic American Historical Review, 1918-1945 (Vol. I)


Butler, Ruth Lapham, Ed., Guide to the Hispanic American Historical Review, 1918-1945 (Vol. I), Durham, North Carolina: Duke University Press, 1950.

From the Prefatory Note:
Time was when readers of the Hispanic American Historical Review could carry a reasonably complete table of contents in their heads. That time is long since past, for the increasing bulk of the file quite precludes any such feat of memory. As a result, many valuable contributions, not to mention the news record of the Hispanic American field in the United States since 1918, lie hidden in a discouraging row of bulky tomes for lack of a guide to their location. This volume is intended to provide such a guide and thereby to transform the more or less dead file of the magazine into a rich and living body of organized material of the greatest usefulness to the scholar and teacher. It should be realized, however, that the present Guide is not a comprehensive index to the subject matter of individual articles and other contributions. Detailed indexes will be found in all but two of the volumes (IV and V), and it has not been considered necessary to duplicate these on a cumulative twenty five year basis. Instead the Guide is intended to supplement the annual indexes.
