1862-02 Atlantic Monthly Magazine Contents

1862/02 — Unfortunately for us now, early issues of “The Atlantic” did not employ bylines on its stories and articles, thus most items from the contents listed below are anonymous. When there is an article with a known author I will credit it below. Note: The following titles could be articles, stories or even short poems in some cases.

Contents as follows:

Battle-Hymn of the Republic by Julia Ward Howe – Original Publication, this important piece of American history takes up just a single page, actually closer to a half-page, though it is the first page of this issue with Atlantic masthead at the top
