Please place the title of your book at the beginning of the file in 16 to 18 point font size. Any dedications or acknowledgements that appear in the first few pages can be in 10 to 12 point font size. Don't worry about trying to build your own Table of Contents without knowing the page numbers. We will build the Table of Contents when we typeset your book. If you look at what is typically published today, you'll see that underlines are almost never used to emphasize body text, and bold text is used by publishers almost exclusively in chapter heads, headlines, and captions.
Italics are the norm for emphasis within the body of the text.
Your straight quotes will be replaced with curly quotes. There are many reasons why good writers try to use as few words as possible to express an idea. In the example above, the quotation from E.B. White is followed by the embedded citation. At the end of the book, a complete footnote for The Elements of Style would be included with more detailed information, such as edition, publisher, publication date, etc. Please make sure your manuscript follows these guidelines before submitting it to UP, to insure that your book will look professional when it is published.
