Joe Boyles - 27 Jan 2004 21:28 GMT
My name is Joe Boyles and my research partner and I have recently completed
a new historical travel guide to post-Roman/ pre-Saxon, Arthurian Britain.
We are interested if anyone in this newsgroup knows where we might seek the
publication of this
work.

Below is the pertinent information on the work:

We propose a 44,000-word guidebook covering all the major Arthurian sites
and a few lesser points of interest, 77 places total.  We have divided the
Arthurian landscape into seven regions-London, Southwest England, Cornwall,
South Wales, North Wales, the Borders area, and Scotland-each of which will
cover 10-12 sites.  Each site will have relevant legendary background, a
detailed description, and extensive directions, including an Ordinance
Survey grid reference.  We have taken well over a thousand pictures and plan
to use the best of these to illustrate our guide (We currently have over 80
chosen).

We have researched this topic for two years and have traveled over 5500
miles through Britain visiting these places. While in England, we
interviewed and spent the day with noted Arthurian scholar Geoffrey Ashe,
who is also the author of several books of Arthurian interest.

Get an agent.

If it's any good you'll sell it,  if it isn't an agent will let you know.
