Manuscript Editing for Hispanic American Historical Review Journal Articles

Order Manuscript Editing Published since 1918, Hispanic American Historical Review publishes original research and analysis on Latin American history, with book reviews in each issue and occasional forums. Duke University Press publishes it in cooperation with the Conference on Latin American History and the American Historical Association. It is edited in the Department of History at UCLA.

Articles run up to 12,000 words, counting notes, the reference list, and illustrations, with a full-page illustration counting as about 400 to 500 words. Citations follow a style adapted from the Chicago Manual of Style, 18th edition: shortened notes, except for newspapers and archival sources, and a reference list that gives works in full. Manuscripts may be in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. Authors obtain and pay for image permissions. Off the Grid Editing shortens the notes and builds the reference list from them. Submissions go through ScholarOne.
