  Supporters

  Unbound is a new kind of publishing house. Our books are funded directly by readers. This was a very popular idea during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Now we have revived it for the internet age. It allows authors to write the books they really want to write and readers to support the books they would most like to see published.

  The names listed below are of readers who have pledged their support and made this book happen. If you’d like to join them, visit www.unbound.com.
