Scholarly reviews of recent work in history
Both American Historical Review and Isis publish hundreds of book reviews every year. If you are looking for a review of a recent book from an academic press, you may find it quickest to search them directly. There are also several online review services, including H-NET, Bryn Mawr Classical Review, and The Medieval Review. It's worth signing up for whichever of these covers your area of interest.
