CALL FOR CONTRIBUTORS
NATIVE AMERICA: A STATE-BY-STATE HISTORY
 
Greenwood Press invites scholars of Native American history to submit
entries for its forthcoming publication titled Native America: A
State-by-State History. 
This 3-volume set will cover North American Indian history in the United

States from the pre-colonial period to the present.  Intended for high
school and college audiences, each chapter will be organized
alphabetically by state. Some states will have shorter chapters, around
7,000-10,000 words in length; other states will be covered in 10,000 to
25,000 words. Each chapter will start with a chronology of events
significant to Native American history in that particular state followed
by a narrative overview of these events, a section highlighting notable
individual Indians in the state, a brief essay on native cultural
contributions to the state and a suggested readings list. 
 
Interested potential authors should submit a cv noting their credentials
and expertise as well as the name of the state(s) on which they would
like to submit chapters.  Established scholars and advanced graduate
students are encouraged to contribute.  Each author will receive an
honorarium for their contribution, and depending on the number of
entries submitted, may be eligible to receive a complimentary copy of
the three volume set.
Approved contributors will receive an assignment and contributors' 
guidelines document via email followed by a release form postal mailed
from the publisher to be signed and returned.  Complete entries are
subject to a rigorous editing process and will be accepted for
publication at the discretion of the editor and publisher.
