Your XML document is not well formed; you have two root elements (Start); you will need to change into something like:
<root>
<Start>
<authors>
<author>Chappel</author>
<author>Tyler</author>
</authors>
</Start>
<Start>
<authors>
<author>David</author>
<author>Jewell</author>
</authors>
</Start>
</root>

...or split it in two documents.
