The Pioneer (Literary Magazine)
American
A Literary and Critical Magazine
The Pioneer was a short-lived Boston magazine edited by proprietors James Russell Lowell and Robert Carter. James Lowell created the periodical to furnish the intelligent and reflecting portion of the Reading Public with a rational substitute for the enormous quantity of thrice-diluted trash, in the shape of namby-pamby love tales and sketches, which is monthly poured out to them by many of our popular Magazines. Having offices at 67 Washington St in Boston (now One Boston Place, razed), The Pioneer failed after publishing three issues. - AsNotedIn
