Current History is the oldest United States publication devoted exclusively to world affairs. Current History was founded by George Washington Ochs Oakes, the brother of The New York Times publisher Adolph Ochs, in 1914 in order to provide detailed coverage of World War I. The magazine has no institutional, political, or governmental affiliations, and is privately owned. It is published monthly, from September through May.
