The Australian Association for Maritime History

The Australian Association for Maritime History (AAMH) was formed in May 1978. Its main aim is to promote the study, publication and general appreciation of maritime history. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in maritime history. The AAMH is not restricted to Australia and Australian maritime history: its membership and field of interest are international in scope. The AAMH is run by an Executive Council that has officers from all States and Territories. It is currently based in Perth.

Benefits for Members

It attracts articles from both within Australia and overseas, and has established a high scholarly reputation.
