Still seeking editor for wonderful project.
Budget: $10 – $625 USD
I have been producing quality books for 17 years, so this is not my first book. The difficulty in locating an editor for this project has absolutely flabbergasted us. I have had a gambit from a ‘complete re-write’ to only a liberal sprinkling of commas. So, we trudge on. To be very honest, we are running out of patience. All my other projects are on track. I am a well-published author and independent research scholar with a major New York publisher seeking proofreader/editing services on a completed project. I have hired two editors through Upwork which resulted in wasted time and money, now I am behind a deadline with my publisher. My directives are clear. If you honestly believe you are qualified to assist us on this project, please step forward.
Following is a synopsis: Ships and Shipwrecks from the Late Tudor Dynasty. Book Synopsis/Highlights
Part I. This is the first and only collection of logs and recorded events of ships related to England originally recorded in documents from 1547-1603 then stored in archival volumes that at one time, represented a collection of original document material. Unfortunately, not all the original documents survived history leaving only a synopsis (sometimes poorly written) or snippet. Nevertheless, they provide a rare opportunity to view the life of sailors and their ships. Furthermore, this is the first collection of recorded storms, tempests and of ship compliments of crew and ordnance types and quantities of the English navy from 1547-1603.
Part II. A few chosen rare recorded firsthand accounts and narrations of voyages, battles, shipwrecks and lost treasure from the period are shared. The voyages of Sir Francis Drake and Sir Walter Raleigh are often shared; but those in this part add a different opportunity to experience the often harsh, dangerous, and even sometimes lucrative rewards of life on a sailing vessel during the Tudor Dynasty.
Part III. This is the first and only comprehensive list of shipwrecks related to England that occurred between 1547-1603 except for the Spanish Amanda of 1588. In a few of the individual wreck narrations, I have been able to narrow the wreck site location to within a couple square miles of the final resting place of a ship and sometimes its crew.
234 pages with 74, 879 characters. Copyright filed in 2020 for rough content. Freelancer.com will not allow me to share my website allowing you the opportunity to determine if we are a good fit.
