The Journal is available for sale at a variety of bookstores, museums, and historic sites throughout the Shenandoah Valley. Additionally, it may be purchased online. All proceeds from the sale of Journals directly supports MCWI’s various programs, interpretive efforts at the University’s River Campus at Cool Spring Battlefield, and unique educational opportunities for our students.
MCWI is always looking for essay submissions or original scholarship. Submissions can be emailed to jnoyalas01@su.edu and should not exceed 10,000 words in length (including footnotes).
