Series highlight

New Historical Perspectives is an open access book series for early career scholars (within ten years of their doctorate). The series is commissioned, edited and published by the Royal Historical Society and the University of London Press in association with the Institute of Historical Research.

The series accepts proposals for a wide variety of book types, including monographs, edited volumes, and shorter form works. Submissions are encouraged relating to all historical periods and subjects. Extensive support and feedback for authors is provided, many of whom are writing their first monograph. Each author in the series receives substantial feedback from peer reviewers and series editors; is assigned a contact and ‘mentor’ from the editorial board; and takes part in a dedicated Author Workshop to discuss and develop the near-complete book with invited specialists before submission for publication. Books in the series have been shortlisted for a range of awards, including Coal Country by Ewan Gibbs being shortlisted for Scotland’s National Book Awards (2021), Masculinity and Danger on the Eighteenth-Century Grand Tour by Sarah Goldsmith was shortlisted for the RHS’s Whitfield Prize and Civilian Specialists at War by Christopher Phillips was a runner up for the Templar Medal Book Prize.
