Go for it, Hazel, there's nothing wrong with being patriotic, as long as it doesn't end in fanaticism. Smile 


Oh, I agree there. No emotional,shouting, "holier than thour", flag-waving fanatacism. What started this? I sit here looking at my magazines and am amazed at how many of them come from Britain. Now, I like my British cousins very much and I am proud of what they produce but I keep asking how this happens. Surely we do as well. But, I go through the racks and I don't find anything similar. Who knows where the fault lies? Not I. I just keep hoping.
It has been noted that we in Britain live somewhat in the past in some regards, and I guess those who might have run an empire have such tendencies. Only the other day the question was asked in regards to the large number of historical dramas. I don't think there's too much wrong in dipping a toe in such tendencies, as long as you don't plunge both feet in at the expense of looking to the present and the future.Smile

Perhaps I am wrong but I think the "magazines" you are suggesting are online magazines. What I am looking for is a   paper magazine to which I can subscribe. Thank you.

Then your not browsing hard enough. The Weider history group, for example, is well known for it's quality publications that cover a extremely broad spectrum of historical topics...not merely the US Civil War.
 
The Smithsonian and the BBC's history publications are more excellent examples.
 
But... if you presume to avoid publications that speak of war because that is a personal anathema...then your out of luck. For every History related publication I have ever perused....recommended.... or required as reading, as an educator-analyst-consultant-speaker-writer, in uniform and out..... over 40 years..... at some point or another has featured articles dealing with the same on occasion.
 
The same was true as a student in higher academia.

No, I'm not trying to avoid war articles but to find magazines that publish more than war stories. A magazine like History Today which I get from Britain. That is my style of magazine.

Admittedly, I gave up some time ago but I'll try again.
