ROBERT SMALLS: Slave, Soldier, Statesman
is presented by the Weider History Group
The Weider History Group is the world’s largest publisher of history magazines, reaching more than a million enthusiasts each month through the pages of 11 distinctive magazines and frequent special issues. We believe the best grasp on the future can be found in understanding the past. Each of our magazines embraces the importance, excitement, and relevance of historical knowledge. Our editors know the past defines the present and that the narrative of history can be lively, compelling, and accessible.
Our magazines are, and always have been, the leaders in the field, with more circulation, more pages, better artwork, and better writing. The magazines include: American History, British heritage, Military History, Civil War Times, World War II, MHQ: The Quarterly Journal of Military History, Wild West, Vietnam, Armchair General, America’s Civil War, and Aviation History.
What we know about the past is dynamic and ever changing as researchers constantly uncover new treasures of lost records, as archaeologists reveal the ancient past in more detail than we could ever have guessed, and as historians reinterpret clues others had dismissed. Like the Earth’s crust that constantly lifts and churns to reveal the planet’s past, historical documents and artifacts constantly appear from attics and personal collections to reveal far more complexity about what came before than has ever been known. Weider’s editors are at the forefront of that process, determined to report new knowledge and understanding of the past. We avoid retelling the same tired stories about the past. Instead, we seek new truth, and we relish adding to the literature of history instead of repeating it.
We live in a complex ever-changing world in which we are often searching for guidance and leadership to grapple with problems we never expected to face. At Weider we believe the lessons others learned in the past facing difficult situations can often serve as a guide to the present. From our founding fathers to leaders of the recent future such as John F. Kennedy, we have a wealth of brilliance to learn from. We simply have to read to know. And Weider leads the way to that experience.
