SUBMISSION INFORMATION

                           SUBMISSION GUIDELINES. 2026

We are currently accepting only nonfiction submissions.

Unfortunately, we are not accepting non-military titles or fiction at this time.

Please note that we are now considering American military history titles from the pre-Revolutionary War period through present-day conflicts.  Titles accepted are estimated to be published in late 2026 and 2027.

Please do NOT send the manuscript, or it will be rejected.

If we are interested in your submission, we will request the first chapter after review.  Because we publish a limited number of books each year, we are opening the submission window for 120 days.

Before considering your submission, please answer the following questions as thoroughly as possible.

  (1) Summary of your proposed work.

Briefly describe the content and theme of your proposed work.

Tell us about yourself, including your contact information, background, qualifications, and any previously published titles and/or magazine articles you have written.

  (2) Specifications of your proposed work

Please discuss the length of your proposed work (word or page count), including the bibliography and notes.

Please tell us about the sources you used for your work.

Please tell us whether you intend to use footnotes or endnotes.

Please tell us what writing style examples you are using (Chicago, MLA, etc.).

Please tell us your primary and secondary target audiences you hope to reach with your book.

 Please tell us how your work relates to any comparable titles currently on the market. Please include those titles.

How will you help us market your book through social media, signings, lectures, talks, or tours? Please discuss.

*Please note* Potential authors are responsible for securing all photo rights and permissions for their work. These must be provided before a submission proceeds to contract.  

We will contact you if we are interested in publishing your work within a ninety-day window to request additional information and the first chapter.

Because we receive many submissions from agents and authors each year, Gettysburg Publishing is under no obligation to provide any communications related to the status of your submission.  

Please submit to submissions@gettysburgpublishing.com

Thank you for considering Gettysburg Publishing.
