    AFTER SENDING 150.00, I NEVER RECIEVED ANOTHER COPY. WHAT IS UP?

    No need to shout. TOCWOC is NOT affiliated in any way with North & South Magazine. I guess it’s bolded disclaimer time on this page. I was subscribed through Volume 13, so while I’m not in for as much as you, I’m still in. I was told by another Civil War blogger that the next issue is on the way after a four month hiatus.

    Just recieved Volume 11 Number 3 today (5/1/2009). I also tried the website, but no luck. I also subscribe to Americas Civil War and the Civil War Times.
    I used to subscribe to The Columbiad, which I liked but is no longer published. Are there any decent Civil War journals left out there?
    Please let me know.

    Jody,

    Excellent! I enjoyed Columbiad too and I have a complete run of that journal. Civil War History is it as far as fottnoted academic journals go. Currently the articles focus mostly on race, class, and gender, which are the current fads in Academia.

    I have been getting N&S since 1997, and even before, since it was under another name. The original was produced in Virginia, until it was bought out and moved to California. I keep hearing on the Web that the current publisher keeps going to China for one reason or another, and N&S has taken a backseat. I also heard about the lifetime membership for $150.00. I did my research on the situation. My membership is through 2012, and if this situation continues, I do not think that I will renew this magazine.

    I’m glad to hear it’s not just me having problems with N&S; and I’m sad to hear that there are problems of such extent. It was the very best, for a while.

    Hello,
    I am a Spanish fan of the American Civil War and I discovered “North and South” magazine some years ago and the grest attractive for me was that they send back issues overseas (other American Civil War magazines does not, I do not understand the cause). I would like to complete my collection with some back issues but for my surprise I have found the magazine web “no operative”. Can anybody say where I would order some back issues of the magazine?
    Thanks,

      Javier,

      At this point, your best bet is to look in the latest issue. There is usually a page focusing on back issues where you can purchase them directly from Keith Poulter at North & South. Your second choice is probably eBay or Abebooks. I’ve found a lot of back issues of Civil War magazines available there.

    Where can I purchase back issues of North & South Magazine?

      Don,

      That is a good question. The magazine used to have a very good web site where back issues could be purchased with ease, but that is long gone. Your best bet is to look to places like EBay, and used book sites like Amazon.com or Abebooks.com.

    I was a charter subscriber to North & South and find that it has the best written articles. I do have two complaints. 1. the ink smears too easily and 2. the use of color behind the text makes reading difficult. If others have these difficulties please contact the editor who has thus far ingored my messages.

    Hello, I was a follower of North and South Magazine but I thought the publication has died some years ago !! But I have recently seen comments that the magazine is still published. I have not found any track of a web on Internet and only I have found some back issues on Amazon. Can anyone offer more information about how to get the magazine and back issues, please? (and if there is anyone to send orders to Spain)

    Hello, I have almost all of North & South back issues – the magazine was good! Does anyone know anything about the quality of the latest issues?? I read a lot about money problems an undelieverd subscriptions and bad management.
    I hate to waste money on a subscription, even if it is only $9.99 per year. Thank you for opinion!!

      Mr. Lack,

      I think most of those issues have been resolved at this point. I don’t think you will be wasting your money if you subscribe now.
