An open-ended, peer-reviewed book series from the West Point Press focused on the men and women who have helped shape the US Army since its establishment on June 14, 1775.

Books in the Impactful US Army Leaders series will focus on the diverse group of men and women who have significantly shaped the United States Army - from its inception through today. The impact of these leaders can take many forms, but all will have shaped the Army in some meaningful way. While any figure who has helped shape the US Army can be part of the series, priority will be given to those works that highlight lesser-known leaders - those soldiers and civilians who have not received widespread recognition for their efforts, or those works that challenge more conventional narratives. Works do not need to limit their scope to the time the subject was serving in or supporting Army efforts and initiatives, but the work must devote sufficient attention to detailing the subject's impact on the Army.

Books in the series will be historical nonfiction and will vary in length based on their subject matter and the specific form they take.
