Dear Subscribers,
H-1960s seeks to recruit an energetic editor or team of editors to commission and edit reviews of recently published books or other scholarly materials on the history, politics, culture, and legacy of the 1960s.
Dear Subscribers,
Dear H-Atlantic Members,
The editorial team is excited to share two wonderful professional opportunities with our membership.
H-SHERA Reviews is recruiting new reviewers. It is a great way to promote the work of your colleagues and make a contribution to H-SHERA. Writing a book review for H-Net/H-SHERA is similar to writing a review for any academic paper periodical. The reviewer receives a hard copy of the book or an electronic copy (if she/he prefers and if it is available).
We're looking to re-launch H-Labor's book review series.
We'd like to do single book and film reviews as well as host roundtable discussions on current publications in labor and working calss history.
The JHistory network is looking for scholars to review new academic books. We have a large selection of new titles and would like to match them with good reviewers. Please contact JHistory book review editor Rob Rabe (rabe@marshall.edu) for more information about writing reviews or to to see a list of available titles.
