I'm stuck...
Patricia Cox, Patricia Cox Crews, and Patricia C. Crews are one and the same. She writes about quilts. I have combined Patricia Cox Crews and Patricia C. Crews, but can't seem to bring Patricia Cox into the group. Every time I try, from either direction, Patricia Cox becomes the dominant name, and that just isn't right.

Please note: Patricia Cox Miller, who writes about issues of divinity, is a totally separate author and should remain so.

I'm afraid that, at the moment, you can't control the dominant name - most often it seems Amazon has the last word on that.

You can either join them up and get all the books together, or keep them separate and keep the right name.

Wait - before you go any further - I actually used to (sort of) know Patricia Cox, who lives in Minnesota and wrote American Quilt Classics. I just did a Google search and saw a picture of PC Crews, who is definitely a different person than the Patricia Cox I know.

Here's where the confusion comes in: Patricia Cox is a quilt collector and designer, and Patricia Cox Crews is a professor of textiles at Univ. Nebraska-Lincoln and the director of the International Quilt Study Center. Without knowing one of them by sight I know I would assume they are one and the same, but they are really different people.

So, the way these are set is correct as it stands. However, I can't figure out how to set these two to never combine - how do I get there?

One wrong book still exists, though. Batallón de San Patricio which is about an Irish battalion in Mexico written in 1954. I'm pretty sure the Pat Cox I know didn't write this. I'll post this on the master list page.

Wow - that's even more confusing than I thought!
