We learned of the ASLH’s call for
nominations for this year’s John Phillipp Reid Book Award.
The John Phillip Reid Book Award
is awarded annually for the best monograph by a mid-career or senior scholar,
published in English in any of the fields defined broadly as Anglo-American
legal history. The prize is named for John Phillip Reid, the prolific legal
historian and founding member of the Society, and made possible by the generous
contributions of his friends and colleagues. When awarding this
prize, preference is given to work that falls within Reid’s own interests
in seventeenth- through nineteenth-century Anglo-America and Native American law.
The award is given on the
recommendation of the Society’s Committee on the John Phillip Reid Book Award.
(First books, written wholly or primarily while the author was untenured,
should be sent to the Cromwell Book Prize committee of the William Nelson
Cromwell Foundation. The Reid Award and the Cromwell Book Prize are mutually
exclusive.)
For the 2019 prize, the Reid
Award Committee will accept nominations from authors, presses, or anyone else,
of any book that bears a copyright date in 2019. Nominations for the Reid Award
should be submitted by June 1, 2020, by sending a curriculum vitae of the
author and one copy of the book to each member of the committee.
