The Gladstone Book Prize is an annual prize awarded by the Royal Historical Society to debut authors for a history book published in Britain on any topic which is not primarily British history. The prize is named in honour of William Ewart Gladstone and was made possible by a grant by the Gladstone Memorial Trust. It was first awarded in 1998, the centenary of Gladstone's death. In 2025, the prize merged with the Whitfield Prize for debut works on British history to form the Royal Historical Society First Book Prize. In 2025 the combined prize was awarded to Laura Flannigan and Jules Skotnes-Brown.
