Hi gang, It's a little early to be promoting this, I suppose, but I thought some of you would like to know that finally I've been nudged sufficiently and have the resources at last to Just Do It: self-publish the Compendium of Common Knowledge, 1558-1603, otherwise available as http://elizabethan.org/compendium --yes, ISBN and index and everything.
I've even hired a professional book designer(someone whose work I know), so it will be properly typeset and actually look like a real book, as well as be one. It should be ready sometime this summer as a trade paperback via Print On Demand (printer still TBD). That means you'll order it online and they'll make you a proper bound copy and send it to you. Can't say what the price will be yet, of course, but I'll keep it as reasonable as possible. After all, we're giving it away online every day. :-) Not a lot of costume content, I know, but hey, all those Elizabethans need some context! More news as it becomes available, MaggiRos Vikings? What Vikings? We are but poor, simple farmers. The village was burning when we got here.
