books. After that page may or may not be Acknowledgments, then my maps, then the first chapter. A lot of books have twice that amount of stuff at the start.
When designing the book you could move almost everything to the end.

One author never has an introduction but has an afterword instead. Acknowledgments at the back too.

For a collection or anthology you want a representative item to start but if there is a BRAND NEW by BIG AUTHOR you probably don't want it in the sample zone.
