The History Teacher also publishes, as regular departments, reviews of audiovisual materials, textbooks, supplementary readers, and other printed classroom materials, with evaluations of their scholarly reliability, formats, and effectiveness of presentation. Reviews are commissioned in advance. Readers interested in contributing reviews should advise the Editor of their qualifications and fields of specialization. |

The History Teacher does not have its own style sheet. Contributors should follow the forms of citation customary in the historical profession. Manuscripts must be double spaced (including all quotations and end notes), and submitted in triplicate. The manuscripts should be in letter quality type. Authors are encouraged to supply or recommend illustrations that would enhance the effectiveness of their work in print. Final decisions on manuscripts usually require a minimum of 10–15 weeks. We cannot return articles which have not been accepted unless a self-addressed, stamped envelope was enclosed with the article. The editors, who are the final judges of matters concerning grammar, usage, and other conventions, will edit contributions to conform to the normal manner of presentation in The History Teacher. |

Contributors should indicate at the time of first (hard copy) submission if their manuscripts are available in electronic form, identifying the word processing programs and the types of machine upon which the manuscripts were prepared. Upon acceptance, contributors will be informed if the manuscripts can be received in electronic form by The History Teacher. |
