There are also many more titles, especially in the Politics, Institutions, and Public Policy in America book series by Scott Frisch and Sean Kelly. Professor Sean Kelly will be attending the WPSA conference.
In fact, Professors Frisch and Kelly are two of the coeditors of a new book, that “could help bring about a revolution in the way political scientists do their work” as praised by Dr. Raymond Smock, director of the Robert C. Byrd Center for Legislative Studies; former historian, U. S. House of Representatives; and past president of the Association of Centers for the Study of Congress. The book, Doing Archival Research in Political Science, with two other coeditors Douglas B. Harris and David C.W. Parker, has already been praised by leading scholars and is scheduled for publication at the end of this March.
