Hi-

 

I have a genealogy patron who is looking to publish a book but is not
sure how to go about accomplishing this. He has a wonderful collection
of letters that he would like to have put into a book. These letters
were sent to his grandmother from her siblings and other relatives, and
they really cover a slice of American life from a certain time period.
One person fought in the Civil War, another had an encounter with John
Wilkes Booth before Lincoln's assassination, still another wrote from
the fields of the gold rush. That's just to give you an idea of what he
has and to illustrate that it's not a genealogy or family history that
he wants to publish, but something of interest to his relatives and
possibly historians as well. 

Any ideas about who I should send him to? 

Thanks for your input!
