THE KEY TO THE FIRST THIRTY YEARS

There is an easy way to find out what was published in the Journal in early years by examining the thirty-year index. In 1995 the Academy published Journal of Croatian Studies: Annotated Index, volume I-XXX (1960-1989), compiled and  annotated by Slavko Granic (Stan Granic). Since the Journal is an interdisciplinary periodical, the index is arranged in eight sections providing indicative summaries or descriptive guides. In addition to the author and subject index, there is also, for instance, a very handy Belles Lettres Index, Book an Book Reviewers Index as well as the listing of Editorial Board members during that period. The same volume includes an overview of The Croatian Academy of America: A Chronicle of Its Contribution to Croatian Studies (1953-1990) by Karlo Mirth. As indicated in the title, this is a concise chronicle of the Academy's activities preceding and following the Journal's publication. Price of this 158-page volume is $30 for institutions, $20 for individuals.
