Perspectives from SHA
Subject and Regional Readers in Historical Archaeology
The Perspectives from Historical Archaeology volumes offer subject matter and regional selections of articles published in the SHA’s journal, Historical Archaeology. Each volume is developed by a compiler who is an expert in the material and who selects the articles and their structure. The compiler also provides an introduction that presents an overview of the substantive work on that topic. Perspectives volumes offer non-archaeologists a convenient source for important publications on a subject or a region; an excellent resource for students interested in developing a specialization in a specific topic or area; affordable and comprehensive sources for course adoption; as well as a convenient reference for archaeologists with an interest in the subject matter. Most Perspectives cost $25-$45 for bound copies and $15-$30 for ebooks.
The Perspectives series is managed by the SHA’s Journal Editor and Co-Publications Editor and is published through the SHA’s Print-On-Demand (POD) Press. Use of a POD Press for publishing allows us to develop multiple titles simultaneously, and the SHA’s intent is to use this publishing format to significantly expand the range of written resources on historical archaeology.
The Series Editors are interested in hearing from compilers with an interest in developing readers on Urban Archaeology, Ethnicity, Gender, Cultural Resource Management, and Military Sites, as well as those with regional interests. Individuals interested in compiling a volume for publication through this series are encouraged to contact the editors: Ben Ford ben.ford@iup.edu or J. W. Joseph, jwjoseph@newsouthassoc.com
