Women's West Series
Sybil Downing and Margaret Coel, General Editors
Books in the Women's West series are devoted to the study of women in the trans Mississippi region. The series is intended to broaden interest and understanding of the American West by depicting the largely overlooked contributions of women from all cultures, perspectives, and experiences. The time period of the series is open-ended, since the West is a region, not a time. The twentieth century, for example, is widely disregarded in literature about the West, and much also remains to be written about the period before the Civil War. Quality writing is a criterion. Manuscripts must be written in an informative and interesting manner, and they must additionally be based on high quality, scholarly research.
Submissions should be addressed for the series and directed to:
Darrin Pratt, Acquiring Editor & Director
University Press of Colorado
5589 Arapahoe Ave. # 206C
Boulder, CO 80303
All proposals for the Women?s West Series should follow the press submission guidelines, and submission will be evaluated by the press acquisitions staff, the series editors, as well as outside experts.
