The North American Victorian Studies Association is pleased to announce a new annual prize for the best book of the year in Victorian studies. In addition to receiving complementary registration and up to $1000 for travel, the winner of the NAVSA Best Book of the Year will be honored with a special round table devoted to the book at the annual NAVSA conference. Books may be on any topic related to the study of Victorian Britain and/or its empire. To nominate a book that was published in the 2012 calendar year, the deadline is 31 January 2013 (that’s a receipt deadline, not a postmark deadline). Please see the NAVSA website for details: http://www.cla.purdue.edu/english/navsa/Prizes/BookPrize.cfm
