Index to Southern Periodicals (Historical Guides to the World's Periodicals and Newspapers)

This book provides a listing of nearly 7,000 Southern non-newspaper periodicals that started publication from 1764 to 1984. The initial section of the index is arranged chronologically, by the date the periodical was founded; an alphabetical list and a chronological listing by state are provided in appendixes. Each entry includes information on title, place or places or publication, dates of publication, any title changes or information on supersessions, absorptions, or continuances, and a sample of libraries that hold files of the periodical's back issues.
