The Argosy [1865]

Total Issues: 418

Intended as a serious monthly magazine "of tales, travels, essays and poems" like The Cornhill, but its early serialization of the sensation novel "Griffith Gaunt" by Charles Reade (about bigamy) made it a racier magazine than planned. Under Mrs Wood it continued this trend. It published her "Johnny Ludlow" stories.
