The Barnabys in America: Final sequel to The Widow Barnaby by Frances Milton Trollope (1779 - 1863).

This project is now complete. All audio files can be found on our catalog page here:

https://librivox.org/the-barnabys-in-america-by-frances-milton-trollope/

I scruple not to confess that with all her faults, and she has some, I love her dearly : I owe her many mirthful moments, and the deeper pleasure still of believing that she has brought mirthful moments to others also. Honestly avowing this to be the case, can any one wonder, can any one blame me, for feeling an affectionate longing at my heart to follow her upon the expedition upon which I sent her when last we parted'?
I will forthwith proceed to tell them all that has happened to this dear excellent lady since General Hubert and Mr. Stephenson left her in her grand drawing-room in Curzon-street, surrounded by her family and friends.
( Frances Milton Trollope)

  • Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): standard



    IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).
    Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process (unless you are the BC or PL). Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

You didn't indicate a number of sections, so I've started you off with 10. You can add more as needed or I can delete any that you don't use.

Note the edits I made to shorten up the filenames and intros.

You're right...didn't even notice...getting lazy in my old age. :-)

I'll add them as I go along. And I'm glad you shortened intros etc. Thanks!!!

And here we go...maybe a bit slower than usual because of the renos still going on above me.

I'm reading from the book I posted but am getting the headings for each chapter from the individual volumes as I did in the previous books. Volume 3 is not on Archive.org but I found it on google books as you will note in the links below.

https://archive.org/details/barnabysinameric01trol
https://archive.org/details/barnabysinameric02trol
https://books.google.ca/books?id=R8cyAQAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false

Please don't hesitate to tell me if you want me to do any pickups. I've tried to redo sections where noise was evident but it's possible I may have missed some repeats when checking. :-). Hopefully NOT!!!!

Any questions or comments are welcome WITHIN REASON. :D :D
Hope you are enjoying a lovely weekend...sure is cold here.
