I tried again to pronounce "EDWARD M. Thomas".

That was a great edit

Hello

I read the note in the first post but I would like further clarification as to what can be read for this collection, namely could I read a self-contained chapter from a longer non-fiction book? (For example a chapter of a book about Famous Explorers focusing on a particular discovery) or do you prefer to avoid that?

Hi Piotrek81, A self-contained chapter from a longer nonfiction book would be welcome at the Nonfiction Collection. Famous explorers are an ideal topic. As an instance, pschempf just read a chapter from a book about the explorer Sven Hedin, In the Land of the Wild Yak, for Vol. 066.

Thank you for your answer. I'll submit something to this collection later on. There are too many cases of interesting chapters that made me think "Do I really have to read the whole book just to have this one piece recorded?"

With this sentiment I thoroughly agree!

Thank you Sue!

I have slightly changed the file name on the uploader of the first part by Hardy, so that the files sort correctly both on title and on filename. Sorry to intrude...

Thanks, again! I wouldn't call what you did an "intrusion;" rather the action of a person with an orderly mind-- the mathematician that you are thinking things through for the general good. I approve and appreciate!

Hi Anita, Your reading is PL OK!

You very ably conveyed the pathos which Hubbard so vividly projects in his tribute to those who went down with the Titanic!

I see from Wikipedia, that Hubbard and his wife tragically perished at sea themselves in the sinking of the Lusitania in 1915.

Oh, wow! I didn't know that about Hubbard! What a coincidence! Thanks for sharing that with me! Anita
