CfP: New Researchers in Maritime History Conference 2020

The British Commission for Maritime History, in association with the Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust, invites contributions to its twenty-sixth conference for new researchers.

It is a wonderful location in which to hold this annual conference and provides a unique opportunity for new scholars to present their work in a historic setting.
