Hurlbut's Life of Christ For Young and Old by Jesse Lyman Hurlbut (1843 - 1930).

All audio files can be found on our catalog page: https://librivox.org/hurlbuts-life-of-christ-for-young-and-old-by-jesse-lyman-hurlbut/
Hurlbut's Life of Christ For Young and Old is a detailed, chronological presentation of the life of Christ, relying heavily on quoted portions of Scripture. Rev. Hurlbut makes the gospel story accessible for the reader as each episode and teaching is presented as natural dialog. The Life of Christ is a worthy companion to his larger multi-volume Story of the Bible. These are true classics of Christian literature. ( Larry Wilson)
    1. How to claim a part, and "how it all works" here To find a section to record, simply look at point 5. below at the sections. All the ones without names beside them are "up for grabs." Click "Post reply" at the top left of the screen and tell us which section you would like to read (include the section number from the left-most column in the reader list, please). Read points 6. to 8. below for what to do before, during and after your recording.
    2. New to recording? Please read our Newbie Guide to Recording!
    3. Is there a deadline? We ask that you submit your recorded sections within 1-2 months of placing your claim. Please note that to be fair to the readers who have completed their sections in a timely way, if you haven't submitted your recording(s) after two months, your sections will automatically be re-opened for other readers to claim, unless you post in this thread to request an extension. Extensions will be granted at the discretion of the Book Coordinator. If you cannot do your section, for whatever reason, just let me know and it'll go back to the pool. There's no shame in this; we're all volunteers and things happen.Please do not sign up for more sections than you can complete within the two month deadline.
    4. Where do I find the text? Source text (please only read from this text!): http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/40460
    5. Please claim sections (the numbers in the first column below)! If this is your first recording, please let me know under which name or pseudonym you'd like to appear in the LibriVox catalogue. We can also link to a personal website/blog.

Nice project! I'll wait for the MW to make claims, but if you have a DPL you may want to take the tilde out of your subject line.

Thank you so much, David!

I've got the MW set up with word counts and put myself in for some sections.
I think we should have Hurlbut's added to the main subject line to reflect the full title.

Well, I needed to combine the preface and the introduction to keep the chapter numbers corresponding to the section numbers. I've put you in for Section 00, but if that makes it longer than you want to take, just let me know.

That's perfect! I'll try to pick up some more later, but only if I'm diligent in getting some other claims finished first.
