The Christian Register

The Christian Register was a periodical published by Unitarians in Boston in the 19th and 20th centuries. (There is a Wikipedia article about this serial.)

Publication History

The Christian Register began in 1821. It was known as The Christian Register and Boston Observer from 1835 to 1843. No issue copyright renewals were found for this serial. The first copyright-renewed contribution is from October 1943. (More details) It changed its name to the Unitarian Register in 1957. UU World, a magazine published today, traces its roots to this magazine and the Universalist Leader.
