Inside the JAH - The Book Review Process

Inside the JAH - The Book Review Process

How do books get reviewed in the Journal of American History? What criteria do editors use when selecting books for review? How are reviewers assigned, and how can you become one yourself? What constitutes a good book review according to our editors?

In this episode of the Journal of American History Podcast, Marina Mecham speaks with Assistant Editor Amy Ransford and Editorial Assistant Kasha Appleton to provide an inside look at the journal's book review process. If you've ever considered submitting a book for review or writing a review for the Journal but aren't sure about the next steps, this episode is for you!

Still have questions after listening to our Inside the JAH series? Email us at jahcast@oah.org. We plan to create another episode dedicated to answering your additional questions.

If you're interested in becoming a reviewer for the journal, please submit a reviewer data sheet linked here: https://www.oah.org/publications/jah/reviewer-data-sheet/

Music: King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band’s Mabel’s Dream, 1923
