Tobi Taylor did an excellent technical job of my dissertation, which was nearly 500 pages long and contained more than 60 figures and tables. Her efforts included thorough editing for grammar and style, collation of figures and tables with callouts, and a check of citations with the bibliography. I haven't found a mistake yet and highly recommend her services.

For my doctoral dissertation, Tobi’s editing sharpened and clarified a number of key sections, which, no doubt, contributed to its success. My dissertation won the 1995 Society for American Archaeology’s dissertation prize for the best archaeology dissertation in the Americas.
