We are working on a contracted book titled The Routledge Handbook of U.S. Diplomatic and Military History since 1865. We have already gathered a number of great contributors for this volume and are seeking additional contributors for the remaining sections.

We see this book being used in upper level or graduate classes on military or diplomatic history, with the potential for individual essays or chapters being used in a wide range of courses.

We are seeking two different types of essays, as noted on the brief outline below-historiography/overview/introductory essays and topical essays within the chapter. Below is the list of essays for which we still need contributors.

These essays are overviews of the period and should include a review of literature. Potential contributors should be Associate of Full Professors, or have an equivalent level of experience:

The US in the First World War & Treaty of Versailles
The Origins and Early Development of the Cold War
Clandestine Operations & Cold War on the Periphery 1953-1983
Post Cold War Conflicts

These essays are topical and may be include new material, or new arguments. Potential contributors should hold Ph.D.s, or have an equivalent level of experience, and have a record of publication:

US Military Planning during the Interwar Period
UN Coalition Warfare during the Korean Conflict
Operation Just Cause
Operation Desert Storm
US Troops in Non-Traditional Roles: Humanitarian and Peacekeeping

Essays will be roughly 4,000 to 5,000 word count and we would like a full rough draft by the August 15.

If you are interested please send an email to both Dr. Christos Frentzos and Dr. Antonio Thompson with your preferred chapter and your c.v.
