• ... that members of the Minnesota Historical Society get free copies of Minnesota History, a peer-reviewed academic journal? Source: "MINNESOTA HISTORY is sent to all MHS members" (ref 2, p. 162); "Minnesota History is a peer-reviewed journal." (ref 1)

• A better hook probably needs to be proposed here as, even as someone who is interested in academic research myself, this is rather bland. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 03:33, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

How are these? (courtesy pings @Narutolovehinata5:, @Bobamnertiopsis:)

• ALT1: ...that the journal Minnesota History, provided free to members of the Minnesota Historical Society, has covered topics ranging from cholera to root beer stands of the Upper Midwest?
• ALT2: ...that the journal Minnesota History, free to members of the Minnesota Historical Society, covers topics ranging from the Dakota War of 1862 and cholera in the state to root beer stands of the Midwest?

The new hooks are far far better (with a preference to ALT2 as it shows the contrast in topics in greater detail). My only concern though is if the mention that it was provided free to the MHS is necessary. That and that the notability tag has to be resolved first.
