The Bookman was published in New York City from 1895-1933, offering commentary and fiction from prominent American authors. The journal's first issue in February 1895 included America's first bestseller list, a feature that was continued in subsequent issues. In 1918, the journal was bought by the George H. Doran Company and then sold in April 1927 to Burton Rascoe and Seward B. Collins. After Rascoe's departure in April 1928, Collins continued to edit and publish the magazine until it ceased publication in 1933.
