The Arthur Goodzeit Book Award
The Arthur Goodzeit Book Award was instituted in 1991. The Award was named after the late Arthur Goodzeit, a long-time member of NYMAS and first editor of the NYMAS Newsletter. It has been awarded annually to an original work in military history, which in the opinion of the members of the NYMAS editorial committee, is of unusual value.
