New Historical Perspectives is an open access book series for early career scholars (within ten years of their doctorate), who are writing their first book. 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. Submissions are encouraged relating to all historical periods and subjects. Extensive support and feedback for authors is provided: each author in the series receives substantial reports from peer reviewers and series editors, is assigned a contact and ‘mentor’ from the editorial board, and takes part in an Author Workshop to discuss and develop the near-complete book with invited specialists before submission for publication.

At its creation, New Historical Perspectives received generous support from the Economic History and Past & Present societies, and the series is grateful to the Economic History Society for its continued contribution.
