EDITING SERVICES
Christopher Mason offers editing services: line editing, fact checking, and proofreading for books, articles, and speeches.
“Christopher Mason proved to be a meticulous and effective editor. He copyedited and proofread my second book, A World on Fire: Britain’s Crucial Role in the American Civil War, whose 38 chapters would have daunted anyone with less focus and dedication. Mason also collated hundreds of sources from my random notes to produce the bibliography, acknowledgements, and extensive endnotes. I honestly could not have completed the book without his support. Any writer who requires this caliber of assistance could not do better than to engage Mason.” — Amanda Foreman
