SOCIETY FOR ARMY HISTORICAL RESEARCH Registered Charity No. 247844
Annual Essay Prize Competition 2015
The Society for Army Historical Research (SAHR) aims to identify,
from appropriately submitted pieces of work, the best essay written
on the History of the British Army. This includes any aspect of
the Army and its activities, including its Reserve or Auxiliary
formations or the civil offices and institutions which supported them.
Candidates may also deal with the same material in respect of the
armies of the countries of the British Empire/ Commonwealth
including forces maintained by non-Crown bodies within the Empire,
such as the East India Company, or forces allied to and forming an
integral part of the land forces operating on behalf of the Crown
(First Nations/Native Americans, for example).
The competition is open to both University Undergraduates and
Sixth Form School Students. The Competition will award a prize of
£300 for the winner and a prize of £100 for the runner-up, along
with a Certificate, in each of the two classes, Sixth Form and
Undergraduate. Prize winners will be invited to the subsequent
Templer Medal and Prize event to be held in London in April 2015.
The submissions should be about 3000 words in length. Additional
instruction for authors, including the style guide and cover forms,
can be downloaded from: http://www.sahr.co.uk/essay.html
Essays should be submitted electronically to Dr. Ilya Berkovich at
[email protected] by the new extended deadline of
15 March 2015.
Informal enquiries about the essay competition can be made to Dr.
Philip Kerry at [email protected]
