MODERN WAR STUDIES
MODERN WAR STUDIES: The University
Press of Kansas invites the submission of proposals and manuscripts for its new Modern
War Studies series, edited by Raymond A.
Callahan (University of Delaware), Jacob W.
Kipp (U.S. Army Command and General Staff
College), Jay Luvaas (U.S. Army War College), and Theodore A. Wilson (University of
Kansas).
In launching Modern War Studies, the series

scholarship in modern military history. The
series encompasses the period from the mid
eighteenth century to the present, is international in scope, and will embrace such diverse
topics as operations; biography; strategy and
politics; civil-military relations; institutional,
organization, and social history; and the impact of technology on warfare.
