The Laurier Centre for Military Strategic and Disarmament Studies has an extensive publications program, specializing in books and reports on various aspects of Canada's military history, guidebooks to the Canadian battlefields across Europe, and work on contemporary strategic questions. We are always on the look out for unpublished manuscripts for consideration.
Our new Laurier Military History Series is will include edited diaries and memoirs, reports created during wars involving Canadian Forces, as well as shorter original monographs. We hope to provide a new opportunity for graduate students and faculty to publish works of greater than article length in a peer-reviewed series which will be attractively designed and reasonably priced.
The Military Operational Research Series will present a number of operational research reports that will be of particular interest to students of military history. Operational research began in RAF Fighter Command in response to challenges in integrating all sources of information, including radar about Luftwaffe raids on Great Britain. RAF Coastal Command, Bomber Command and the Royal Navy were subsequently involved in a wide range of scientific studies relating to equipment and doctrine. The British Army, and after 1943 the Canadian Army created Operational Research Groups to examine many aspects of training and war fighting. The series will upon the rich resources of the Ronnie Shephard Operational Research Archives.
