Environmental History is an international journal dedicated to exploring the history of human interaction with the natural world. Copublished quarterly by the American Society for Environmental History and the Forest History Society in association with Duke University Press, Environmental History is the successor publication to the journals of the two organizations, Environmental History Review and Forest & Conservation History. Environmental History Review was published from 1976 to 1989 as Environmental Review. Forest & Conservation History was published from 1957 to 1958 as the Forest History Newsletter, from 1959 to 1974 as Forest History, and from 1975 to 1989 as the Journal of Forest History.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

 
Environmental History welcomes manuscript submissions from scholars in all disciplines that provide insight into important issues in the history of human interactions with the non-human world. We are happy to consider manuscripts about any time and any part of the world.

      To have a manuscript considered for publication, please send FOUR copies to the journal s editorial assistant, Carol Marochak, at 701 Wm. Vickers Avenue, Durham, NC 27701. The review process is blind: We do not identify authors when we send manuscripts to referees, and we do not identify referees when we share their evaluations with authors. We hope to respond to submissions within four months.

      Articles in Environmental History normally are no longer than 8,000 words or twenty-eight double-spaced pages, not counting notes, so you should not submit a manuscript that greatly exceeds that length. The title page of your manuscript should include your name, academic affiliation, address, telephone number, and e-mail. The title page also must include a brief abstract. In 150 to 200 words, the abstract should explain clearly what you argue and why your work is significant. The first page of the text should begin with the title of your manuscript but should NOT include your name or contact information. To ensure your anonymity, you also should avoid personal references in the text and notes. Cite your own work just as you would cite the work of another author. Do not include acknowledgements. The manuscript should be double-spaced, and the four copies that you submit should have text on one side of the page only. Please do not send a computer disk.

      If we accept your work, you will need to provide an electronic version of your article, and we will send you guidelines for electronic submission at that point. We also will give you instructions for the preparation of any graphic materials that accompany your article. If you plan to use any illustrations, maps, or photographs that are taken from a source protected by copyright, you will be responsible for securing permission from the copyright holder to use those materials.

      If we accept your work, your article also will need to conform to certain standards of style and citation. Our articles have endnotes, for example, not in-text references to a list of sources. Articles cannot have more than 100 notes. Though we will consider submissions that do not meet our style and citation standards, the publication process will proceed much more efficiently if your manuscript conforms from the start. We rely on the Chicago Manual of Style in most matters.

      Additional guidelines are available online at http://www.lib.duke.edu/forest/ehguide.htm, or phone Carol Marochak at 919/682-9319.
