ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Thank you to the St. Louis County library Oak Bend Branch for asking me to give a presentation on Guinevere during National Women’s History Month. It was in my research for that lecture that this book was born. I never thought I would write non-fiction, especially about Guinevere. But given the amount of information I couldn’t fit into a 60-minute talk, it seemed only natural.
Thank you as well to the gentleman at my November 2016 lecture at the Oak Bend Branch on Victoria Woodhull who suggested I write non-fiction. I wish I knew your name because I had never considered it until you mentioned it. This book is a direct result of your presence at that talk.
Publishing a book takes a tribe and I’ve got a great one. Thanks to my editor, Kelly Gable for her thoughtful consideration of every aspect of this book, as well as the fine tooth comb she took to my footnotes and sources. You are an angel! Thanks to Jenny Quinlan for her help with the beautiful cover and to Nada Qamber for the layout. You make me look so professional!
My thanks to the St. Louis County library and all of the libraries across the country who provided dissertations and theses for me to read, but especially to Georgia College and State University, for the extra effort they put into ensuring I had the opportunity to read Ms. Bonner’s research.
A special shout out to my beta readers: Tyler Tichelaar, Jim Palmer, Courtney Marquez, and my mom. Your input, thoughts, objections (Jim!), and opinions made this book so much stronger. I really appreciate your time and effort. Special thanks to Tyler for his in-depth comments and editing. Seriously, man, I couldn’t have done this so well without you!
I would be remiss if I didn’t thank Dr. Benjamin Moore, my undergraduate thesis advisor, who taught me how to research so many years ago. I never thought that writing about the similarities between Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing and Queen Elizabeth I would lead to this! You’ll appreciate that although the final version of this book is in Chicago Style, all my notes are written in MLA style – it is still what I’m most comfortable with!
