Hi!

Sections 5 and 6 are PL OK.

My husband's family is from Pittsburgh so I'm really enjoying this.

I was definitely thinking about the George Washington statue at Kennywood while reading these!

7-14 are done. I was thinking this whole time, how remarkable the author isn't being racist towards the Indians. Alas, all good things come to an end...

I 've just checked it (never been to Pittsburgh myself) and for some reason find it a very powerful monument, much more than an equestrian one.

Chapers 7-10 are PL OK.

I decided to jump around and do the remaining short ones. So this means that 23, 27, 28, 30 and 31 are finished.

That's great!

PL notes on Section 22:

At the end of the intro, the section is referred to as "Section 23" instead of "Section 22".

In the bit starting at ~ 8:02 I can't hear very well the words "is" or "its": "The point which was yesterday invisible is to-day its starting point."

Have a great day, Tatiana!
