The Center for Civil War Research is accepting submissions for the fifth annual Wiley-Silver Prize in Civil War History. The prize will be awarded to the best first book in Civil War history published in 2015. It recognizes exceptional emerging scholars in the history of the American Civil War. The prize is named for two distinguished former members of the University's History Department faculty, Bell Irvin Wiley and James W. Silver.
The recipient of the Wiley-Silver Prize will receive an invitation to speak at the University’s annual Conference on the Civil War, held in the fall of 2016. At that meeting, the prize and $2000.00 will be awarded the honoree.
