This will be the basic tool for researchers studying the 100-year history of science fiction, fantasy, and weird fiction magazines. Reference Books Bulletin

Reviews
A collection of publishing histories and editorial policies of 279 English language magazines that publish science fiction, fantasy, and weird fiction in the 20th century would be a significant reference book by itself. Add sections on anthology series, academic periodicals, fanzines, and non-English language magazines and such a work becomes indispensable. In this guide, the length of an entry generally depends on the significance of the magazine under discussion, varying from one to two pages (e.g., Macabre; Space Adventure, to 35 pages (Amazing Stories), or 43 pages (Analog). Contributors are knowledgable (some were editors of the magazines they discuss) and the volume editors are well-known scholars in the field. . . . Intended to provide a historical context for the catalog of magazines, Thomas Clareson's introduction becomes a defense of the genre and describes the difficulty of defining `science fiction.' A worthy companion to Michael Cook's Mystery, Detective, and Espionage Magazines.—Choice

This history of American science fiction and fantasy is related closely to the history of its magazines, and this volume provides the histories and discussions of hundreds of genre magazines published between 1882 and 1983.—Booklist
