De Bow's Review was a widely-circulated magazine of "agricultural, commercial, and industrial progress and resource in the American South during the mid-19th century, from 1846 to 1884. Before the Civil War, the magazine "recommended the best practices for wringing profits from slaves". It bore the name of its first editor, James Dunwoody Brownson De Bow (J.D.B. De Bow, 1820-1867), who wrote much of the early issues, but there were various writers over the years. R.G. Barnwell and Edwin Q. Bell, of Charleston, appeared as editors in March 1867, after De Bow's death, and W.M. Burwell was editor from March 1868 to December 1879. The magazine was often published monthly, with several interruptions, from January 1846 until June 1880, and then changed up through 1884. The magazine's publication was disrupted during the American Civil War after August 1864 but resumed in January 1866. After 1880, the magazine underwent a number of name revisions, and in 1884, it was either renamed to or absorbed by the Agricultural Review and Industrial Monthly of New York.
