Author Guidelines

Contributions will be accepted on a year-round basis, with a submission deadline of August 31 for inclusion in the following year's volume. Authors should send to the appropriate editor one copy of their work — either in hard copy or in electronic form as a Microsoft Word file, or both — which should be typed double spaced (including notes and citations) and documented in accordance with the Chicago Manual of Style. The manuscript may be submitted as an email attachment, after advance notice to the editor. The title page should include the author's name, telephone number, postal address, and e-mail address. Contributors are welcome to submit illustrations and graphs with their texts. Due to the journal's book-length format, essays of unusual length are welcome. Submissions acceptable to the editors will be double reviewed by outside experts in the field.

The editors of Book History award an annual prize for the outstanding graduate student essay submitted to our journal. The competition is open to anyone pursuing a course of graduate studies at the time of submission. The deadline for submission for each editorial year is 31 August. The author of the winning essay will receive a prize of $400.00, and the essay will be published in the journal.
