Re: [SOLO] The Hawaiian Archipelago by Isabella L. Bird - Lt

Fixed! Thanks so much for spotting that, and for being such a wonderful PL during the lengthy period that this book stretched over. I really appreciated your work and support. :clap: And now we really are done. I didn't expect you to do all the PL so quickly. I got a head of steam up and no distrac...

Re: [SOLO] The Hawaiian Archipelago by Isabella L. Bird - Lt

And here we are at the end The final chapter. https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/hawaiianarchipelago_34_bird_128kb.mp3 Phew, that was a lot of recording you did over the past few days! I only found one issue in Section 31: 18:38 - repeated "their services are procured by offerings of white fo...

Re: [SOLO] The Hawaiian Archipelago by Isabella L. Bird - Lt

I echo Lynnet. I'm sad to hear about your father's passing and hope you're able to take care of everything else while still giving yourself time to grieve.

Re: [SOLO] The Hawaiian Archipelago by Isabella L. Bird - Lt

OK, here at last is another section, the first part of Letter 29. I was going to put them all into one file, but have just finished reading the other part and it would be rather too long if so. And I've fixed the tiny glitch in Letter 28 Only 4 to go after I upload the second part! https://librivox...

Re: [SOLO] The Hawaiian Archipelago by Isabella L. Bird - Lt

Hi both, I have been meaning to update you, so apologies for this much belated reply. I have not abandoned my project. I was overtaken in the last couple of months by events totally beyond my control, which obliterated everything else. I was on holiday for a couple of weeks, but on return in early ...

Re: [SOLO] The Hawaiian Archipelago by Isabella L. Bird - Lt

A very short one this time, as she finds a way to get closer to her beloved volcanoes. https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/hawaiianarchipelago_28_bird_128kb.mp3 Brr - sooner her than me, she was a stout hearted explorer, was Isabel! And only a few more to go. I probably won't be able to do much in ...

Re: [SOLO] The Hawaiian Archipelago by Isabella L. Bird - Lt

That's what I've done. I have thus uploaded the revised section /letter 27 incorporating the chapter about Molokai. I have touched nothing before 13.15, after the ILB at the end of the letter. Moved End of Section to end of file. It is now quite a bit longer, at 35.34s. Hard reading about the leper...

Re: [SOLO] The Hawaiian Archipelago by Isabella L. Bird - Lt

Question: I'm not quite sure whether to add this chapter to the previous letter (27), which would keep the section number and letter number the same. To do that, I would insert it where the 'end of section' in letter 27 is now, and then ask you to proof from where that begins (I'll tell you where) ...

Here is Section 27, 13.25s https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/hawaiianarchipelago_27_bird_128kb.mp3 Which comes after S26 *rather than 16 :lol: * Hah!
