Description

The "Urban History Yearbook" has an established international reputation and occupies a central place in urban historical scholarship. It includes research based articles, historiographical and methodological surveys, appraisals of source materials, and surveys of urban development in individual countries. Each issue provides detailed bibliographical references for an average of 1,000 classified and indexed items, culled from innumerable monographs and edited collections, and from approxiamtely 560 periodicals. These have proved useful to those intent upon new lines of research, as well as to "old hands" and reference librarians. Cross-references by town ans classified thematically, these bibliographical entries offer a convenient method by which, annually, to update reading lists or embark upon new research projects. The journal has a record of inter-disciplinary contributions, and a broad-based panel of referees and advisors form various countries is used to produce the journal in the Spring of each year.
