James Edward - A Short History of Fantasy

W E are very grateful to our beta readers: Tanya Brown, N.M. Browne, Andrew M. Butler, Anthony Keen, Kari Maund, Maureen Kincaid Speller and Mark Yon. The expertise of David Langford and Celia Cozens saved us from a number of errors. Additional editorial assistance came from Jessica Nash. All remaining mistakes are of course our own.

There are far too many people to list individually who have helped in other ways with this book, answering queries and helping us to generate lists, so instead, below are named the communities and networks to which they belong and where we placed requests.

We would like to thank all those LiveJournal members, members of the mailing list Child_Lit, the mailing lists of the International Association for the Fantastic in the Arts (IAFA) and the Science Fiction Research Association (SFRA), the officers of the Science Fiction Foundation, as well as many editors and agents who specialize in publishing and promoting fantasy literature who have responded to queries and assisted us in tracking information.
