About The Appendix

The Appendix was a quarterly journal of experimental and narrative history, soliciting articles from historians, writers, and artists committed to good storytelling, with an eye for the strange and a suspicion of both jargon and traditional narratives.

The Appendix published eight quarterly issues in two volumes, and between journal articles and blog posts published work from over 150 contributors.
