2023 recipients of RHS Funded Book Workshops

1 August 2023

We are very pleased to announce the recipients of this year’s Funded Book Workshop Grants. These awards, launched in 2023, provide historians working on a second or third monograph with funds to organise and host a day workshop with six invited specialist readers to discuss a manuscript in detail.

The grant recipients for 2023 are:

  • Jennifer Aston (University of Northumbria) for her project: ‘For Wives Alone’: Deserted Wives and Economic Divorce in Nineteenth Century England and Wales
  • Tim Grady (University of Chester) for his project: ‘The Unwelcome Gravediggers’: War, Memory and the Unmaking of British-German Relations

These workshops will be held in the academic year 2023-24.
