Our Courses

The Course is clear

Built by scholars

The Milestone Documents publishing program consists of ongoing content curation and development led by the Editors in Chief of our various subject areas. For subject areas that include the textbook layer articles, our Editors in Chief work with a Review Board of additional scholars to conduct the peer review.

Our award-winning document commentary is written by more than 300 historians and scholars from around the globe. Contributors and their affiliations are clearly identified in the commentary for each document. To view the full list of contributors, click here.
