The Chinese Military History Society will hold its 2014 conference in Kansas City on Friday, April 4. The theme of this year's conference is "Military Deception and the Art of the Stratagem."

Papers may focus on this aspect of the military history (and literature) of China or any other East Asian country, from antiquity to the present, and comparative work is also welcome. As usual, papers on other subjects related to the military history of East Asia will be considered as well.

The time and place of the 2014 CMHS conference were chosen to facilitate participants' attendance at the 2014 conference of the Society for Military History (SMH), which will be held at the Westin Crown Center in Kansas City, Missouri, from April 3 to 6 (with panels beginning on Friday, April 4). Although there is no registration fee for the CMHS meeting, attendance at the SMH conference requires separate registration and payment of applicable fees. CMHS conference attendees will be eligible for the SMH rate for hotel rooms provided they register to attend the SMH as well.

If you are interested in presenting at the CMHS conference, please send your name and contact information, a paper abstract of no more than 250 words, and a brief C.V. to David Graff.

Interested non-presenters, especially scholars attending the SMH conference, are also welcome to attend the CMHS conference.
