Mentor Areas

Greek History; Classical Reception

Description:

I am completing a book on the Persian Wars and am looking for help completing the manuscript. The final manuscript will be approximately 100,00 words; it currently stands at 95,000 words. I have completed the first draft and am looking for editorial assistance. A large part of the project will involve editing the bibliography to ensure it conforms to the publisher's (Oxford University Press) guidelines. I will also be needing assistance tracking down other bibliographical resources which will involve scanning tales of contents and downloading academic articles and chapters. Another part of the poject will be tracking down primary sources and vetting footnotes.

Preferred Qualifications

Basic familiarity with Greek History will help, but no prior knowledge is required. Attention to detail and careful reading and editing skills are essential.

Greek and Altin are not required but would not hurt.
