What is The Historical Review?

We are the Historical Review at the University of Washington, a student-run undergraduate journal showcasing writing and research in the field of history. The Historical Review was founded in 2019 by Wendi Zhou, Meredith Weinstock, Lillian Williamson, and Pattie Unakul as a place for students to showcase research and writing in the field of history. The journal is published once a year every Spring quarter. 

In 2022 The Historical Review Online was launched by Sierra Muehlbauer and Lillian Williamson to showcase the written work of the historical review team. New posts are made 1-2 times per month during the academic year! 

We believe that the study of history is critical to understanding present-day issues, patterns, and events. Our journal seeks to make history more accessible for students and foster conversation on the role of history in the present.
