American Heritage is a magazine dedicated to covering the history of the United States for a mainstream readership. Until 2007, the magazine was published by Forbes.[1] Since that time, Edwin S. Grosvenor has been its editor and publisher.[2] Print publication was suspended early in 2013,[3] but the magazine relaunched in digital format with the Summer 2017 issue[4][5] after a Kickstarter campaign raised $31,203 from 587 backers.[6][7] The 70th Anniversary issue of the magazine (Winter 2020) on the subject "What Makes America Great?" includes essays by such historians as Fergus Bordewich, Douglas Brinkley, Joseph Ellis, and David S. Reynolds.[8]
