Call for Papers — Fort Ticonderoga seeks proposals relating broadly to material culture made, used, or altered in a military context. From soldiers’ encounters with domestic furnishings on campaign to the weapons designed and built for battle, military history and material culture are profoundly connected. Submissions are due July 1, 2024. See the Call for Papers below for more information.
