The aim of the paper is to present the circumstances surrounding the establishment of the scientific journal „Military Historical Review” (PHW) in 1929. It was created on the initiative of the head of the Military Historical Bureau (WBH), Brigadier General Julian Stachiewicz, and focused on the military history until 1863. The supervision of the periodical was handed over to the head of the Independent Department of Previous Wars of the WBH, Major Otton Laskowski, and it featured publications of military, but above all civil researchers. The article presents the first concepts concerning the shape and functioning of the PHW, the response of the historical-military circles to the creation of the journal, as well as the verification of these ideas and declarations of cooperation in relation to the 10 volumes of the „Review” published in 1929–1938. The article also contains information on the editorial plans for 1939 and attempts to pinpoint the mission that the „Military Historical Review” was supposed to carry out in the interwar period.
