Editorial board

The Transactions of the Royal Historical Society is the flagship journal of the Royal Historical Society, the UK's leading membership organisation for professional historians of all kinds. Founded in 1872, Transactions has been publishing the highest quality scholarship for 150 years. Today, the journal welcomes submissions dealing with any geographical area from the early middle ages to the very recent past. The Editors are also interested in content, in a range of formats, that covers entirely new ground, thematically or methodologically, as well as articles engaging critically with established themes in existing literatures. For more on Transactions, please see the Royal Historical Society website.
