Update on timeline:

I have recorded through chapter 18 now, and I just need time to clean them up. I think that I will have this project finished by the middle of April. I hope that this works for everyone else. :D

Thanks. I'm a perfectionist, so it's hard sometimes! :thumbs:

This is what I wrote for the Summary at the beginning of the listing. There wasn't one available for this author's version, and I don't know how to add it into the beginning.

Mary Platt Parmelle brings to life the history of Germany and it's rise to prominence in Europe. From scheming nobles to treaties created under the guise of peace, the reader is transported to the years before a cohesive group of city-states that became Germany. She shows us how the power of the Catholic church stoked the fires of revolution, and caused the great schism between the Catholic people and the newly forming Protestant sects. The book begins by discussing the origins of the Aryan race (framed as describing people of Indo-European heritage as a racial grouping, or distinctive race/sub-race of the Caucasians) and ends around 1871 when Germany was united after defeating Napoleon.

Just point me in the direction of how these get added to the project, if I have permission to do so, and I can get it done right away.

Thanks,

In the upper righthand corner of each of your posts is a small pencil icon. Click on it to edit that post (typically to correct typos). In this case though only I can add the book summary to the Project Screen page (which I have done). The information on the Project Screen page is used to create the LV and Archive.org book page at cataloging time.
