Contact the Editorial Team

We welcome thoughtful correspondence from readers, researchers, and rights holders. Your observations help us maintain a reliable catalogue of travel and geography texts. Below are the kinds of matters we can assist with, along with guidance on what to include in your message.

When to write

• Metadata corrections — If you notice an incorrect title, author, or publication detail on any edition page, please let us know. For example, a volume in the Nicaragua — A Reader’s Guide series may have an erroneous date or a misspelled contributor name.
• Category placement — If a book appears to be mis-shelved among our categories (such as History, Empires & Change or Journeys into the Unknown), we appreciate a note.
• File or reader issues — Unreadable files, formatting errors, or failures in your ebook reader or browser are important to report. Include the file format (EPUB, PDF, etc.) and the device or software you were using.
• Accessibility problems — If you encounter barriers such as missing alt text, poor contrast, or screen-reader incompatibility, we want to hear about it.
• Privacy questions — For inquiries about how we handle personal data, or to exercise your data rights, direct them to the editorial address.
• Copyright or rights concerns — If you believe a text in our catalogue may not be in the public domain in your jurisdiction, or if you are a rights holder with a legitimate claim, please contact us with relevant details.
• General editorial observations — We value thoughtful comments on our reading guides, contextual essays, or the selection of texts. Whether you have a suggestion for a new addition or a critique of an existing entry, we read every message.

How to report

To help us address your concern efficiently, please include as many of the following as are relevant:

• The exact URL (web address) of the page in question.
• The full ebook title and, if applicable, the series or edition name (e.g., On the borders of pigmy land — Reading Notes).
• The file format you tried to access, if the issue is file-related.
• The device, operating system, and browser or reader application you were using.
• A clear description of the observed problem — what you expected and what happened instead.
• For copyright or rights concerns, any supporting information such as your relationship to the work, the jurisdiction involved, and relevant publication dates.

We read every message but cannot guarantee a specific response time. If you do not receive a reply, it may be because we are unable to act on your report or because it duplicates a known issue.
