James Marten and the University of Georgia Press announce a new books series, “Children, Youth, and War.” The series aims to broaden understanding of the experiences and points of view of children and youth during wartime as actors, victims and observers, as well as the effects of armed conflict on the nations, communities, and families in which those young people live. It will also provide historic contexts for such urgent contemporary topics as war refugees, under-age soldiers, and the politicization of childhood, among many others.

Jim will be available to talk to prospective authors at the Society for the History of Childhood and Youth conference in Vancouver.
