Journal overview

Editorial board
History: Reviews of New Books lets readers know what's new in current scholarship on historical topics. Approximately thirty to forty book reviews per issue cover all geographic areas and time periods, from ancient times to the present. The reviews are concise, authoritative, and timely. They outline and evaluate the author's arguments, describe the sources used in the research, and place the book in the context of other scholarship. History is invaluable for professors planning course syllabi, for graduate students interested in cutting-edge work, and for libraries making regular acquisitions.

History: Reviews of New Books is actively recruiting new authors for both its feature review and regular review sections. Feature reviews are review essays that typically engage two (or more) recent history books on all periods, places, subfields, and themes. They are 3000-word articles that bear independent titles and may cite outisde work (according to the author-date system as described in The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition). Regular book reviews retain the standard 1,000-1,500-word format. Authors interested in either opportunity should contact the managing editor with their CV. Publishers should send catalogs, links, or e-books to be considered for review via e-mail to [email protected].
