ahr-citation-and-style

separate

Use when formatting citations and notes for an American Historical Review (AHR) manuscript. The AHR follows the Chicago Manual of Style with all references in footnotes/endnotes — no bibliography or works-cited list and no in-text parenthetical citation. Gets the note apparatus right; it does not write the prose or argument.

When to use

• Building or cleaning up footnotes/endnotes
• Citing archival/manuscript sources, books, articles, or digitized material
• Converting a bibliography-and-author-date draft to Chicago notes
• Addressing reviewer or editor flags on citation form or note density

When not to use

• Writing the prose or argument
• Creating a bibliography or works-cited list
• Using in-text parenthetical citations
