Zachary Shore has been very helpful in reading the manuscripts of several books of mine, contributing both his skills as a historian and as a critical reader. Helpful both in a detailed way—pointing out particular spots where something was turgid or unclear—and in a big-picture way, a skill I’ve found much rarer among editors.

No one has been more helpful in the refinement of my manuscript than Zachary Shore. A superb writer in his own right, he understands how to sharpen arguments and make those arguments accessible to a broad readership.

…he worked with me at each stage of the process. He helped me to craft a winning book proposal, reading and editing multiple drafts until we got it right. He then critiqued every chapter and each full draft of the manuscript.
