“The Narrowing Sea” wins UHA Best Book in Urban History Award!

Written By Hannah Shepherd

I’m excited to announce that The Narrowing Sea is the recipient of the Urban History Association’s 2026 Best Book in Urban History Award! I am very grateful to the award committee and the UHA for this honour, and thrilled that The Narrowing Sea is connecting with historians beyond the field of East Asia.
