Dear Evan,
As an avid reader, I would want the list but with a note stating something
like, caption for map. I realize we aren't to alter text or put in editorial
or personal remarks, but a phrase to identify the list would be like a
transcriber's note and for clarification which is OK.
Just my thought.
Always with love,
Lissi

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] How Do You Handle Maps?
I'm doing one of these fantasy books with a map on facing pages at the
beginning. The submitter actually scanned those pages, and while the map
obviously isn't here, there is a list of towns at the bottom of one map that
came out rather well, as well as a couple of names in the map itself.
I was wondering whether I should write something here about there being a map
in the print edition which is not reproduced here or something like that, or
just leave things as they are.
Is there some consensus here from people who have done books with maps before.
By the way, I'd love to get accessible maps from some of my favorite fantasy
series, such as Tolkien's, Jordan's, Martin's, Brooks, etc. But anyhow, what
do people generally do about these things?
Thanks.
