Book Proposal Submissions

The Wisconsin Historical Society Press publishes books of enduring value that appeal to a broad audience of general readers: lively narratives about interesting people and events; fresh and engaging explorations of well-examined topics; and stories that speak to our regional community but also illuminate Wisconsin's role on the national and world stage. Authors who have an understanding of the audiences they are writing for and the niches their projects fill will have the best chance for success.

Providing the Press with complete information will enhance the Press's ability to evaluate your project in a timely manner, and the proposal template that can be downloaded here will help you give us the information we need.
