JAR Books

In addition to our online publication and annual volumes, Journal of the American Revolution oversees a namesake book series. Journal of the American Revolution Books highlight the latest research on new or lesser-known topics of the revolutionary era. They give an opportunity for contributors and readers to extend their original research to book-length narratives. The series is published and co-edited with Westholme Publishing. The projects selected will benefit from a unique opportunity to gain the backing, resources, and marketing of both an acclaimed nonfiction trade book publisher and JAR, one of the most popular sites in the world dedicated history.
