Submissions are accepted throughout the year.
 
 
Guidelines for Journal Submissions

  • All submissions should be accompanied by author's contact information (name, mailing and e-mail addresses, and phone number).
  • Papers must be submitted in digital (computer) format (an e-mail attachment usually works well). Files must be in Windows (not Macintosh) format, preferably in Microsoft Word. Notes should be displayed as footnotes, not endnotes.
  • Style is based on The Chicago Manual of Style, fourteenth edition (University of Chicago Press, 1993). References using this style should be complete and clear.
  • Photographs or other illustrations are appreciated. Be sure to include appropriate documentation for all photos including source and identification of whom and what are depicted.
  • Submissions will be reviewed by the JWHA Editorial Board for quality and appropriateness to our readers. Feedback to authors may be offered after review by the Editorial Board.
  • Submitting a manuscript for possible use in the John Whitmer Historical Association Journal assumes permission to publish the article. Copyrights for articles accepted for the Journal revert to the authors after publication, though JWHA claims the right to reproduce published works as part of the whole in printed or electronic formats. The Journal editorial staff reserves the right to apply minor copy editing to the manuscript but will provide an opportunity for the author's review prior to publication.
