Call for Papers Canadians and War  Volume  4

Lammi Publishing is pleased to announce a call for papers for the essay collection, Canadians and War  volume  4, to be published  in  Q1 of 2018.

Themes

We wish to provide the opportunity for the discussion of topics which are rarely covered in larger works, as well as to provide a place for bold analysis of debates and topics. Anything is possible from prior to confederation through the conflict in Afghanistan. We are looking for everything from the most personal, a fighter pilot on a single sortie, to the most broad, the effect of the World Wars on French and English Canadian relations.

We are looking for a broad array of voices. We welcome lay people as well as undergraduates and graduate students as well as PhDs.  Please note, we reserve the right to break the volume into smaller works based upon conflict or topic if the response is overwhelming.

Essays are to be between 7,000 and 10,000 words using standard manuscript format and the Chicago Manual of Style. End notes to be used for citations and files to be sent in Microsoft Word format.

Therefore, we require worldwide English language rights in all e-book formats and as a paperback print on-demand rights.
