Just for the record, I was the one who talked John Ward into restructuring his Dowland Miscellany so it included all those appendices (of which, as it happens, ran the alphabet A to Z). As originally submitted, some of John’s footnotes ran to several pages of typescript. In a journal accustomed to footnotes actually being at the bottom of the page, this created numerous editorial and layout challenges.
Over lunch one day when he was visiting the west coast, I managed to talk him into the logic of separating his main text, complete with its detailed “Index of the Works” from the supporting material. I’m glad he listened to his editor. Even then, John would call me every few days excited about fresh, new tidbits in information he had discovered.
