Cromwell Dissertation Prize for 2013
The William Nelson Cromwell Foundation has funded a dissertation prize of $2,500. The winning dissertation may focus on any area of American legal history, including constitutional and comparative studies, but topics dealing with the colonial and early national periods will receive some preference. Anyone who received a PhD in 2012 will be eligible for this year's prize. The Foundation awards the prize on the recommendation of the Cromwell Prize Advisory Committee of the American Society for Legal History. Deadline for submissions is May 31, 2013. Read more >
