I am not sure I would call those ads except that it is blurb and advertises
the book itself. The problem with deleting it is that the blurb actually
contains the synopsis even if it does overdo it. Some of it can definitly be
done without, but to delete part of it and not the rest seems to be going
beyond the duties of what amounts to a Bookshare copy editor, so I think I
would leave it all in.

Hello everyone.
I am proof reading these is My Words: The diary of Sarah Agnes Prine,
1881-1901 By Nancy E. Turner. I was wondering about the ads in the start of
the book.
Do I leave them alone or delete them from the text? I am submitting the
items below this message and any assistance would be greatly appreciated. As
of
right now I have left them alone. Again any assistance with this stuff would
be greatly appreciated and I'm sure would help all of us too. Thanks for
your
time and cooperation with this matter and I hope everyone is having a
spectacular day.

The classic adventure of one courageous woman's life and struggles in the
Arizona Territories in the late nineteenth century
Amoving, exciting, and heartfelt American saga inspired by the author's own
family memoirs, these words belong to Sarah Prine, a woman of spirit and
fire
who forges a full and remarkable existence in a harsh, unfamiliar frontier.
Scrupulously recording her steps down the path Providence has set her upon
from child to determined young adult to loving mother she shares the
turbulent events, both joyous and tragic, that molded her, and recalls the
enduring
love with cavalry officer Captain Jack Elliot that gave her strength and
purpose.
Rich in authentic everyday details and alive with truly unforgettable
characters, These Is My Words brilliantly brings a vanished world to
breathtaking
life again.
