I think I have lost my mind! I've searched and searched and simply cannot find where "Life of Columbus" is listed on The Forum, or if there's a way to get to it from the "messages" page. I need to send in my recording but can't find who the BC is, the correct labeling etc. Can you advise where to I can get that information?

Got it. Thanks. No sure if I send this to you or the BC - so confused! Here is the link to the recording for Chapter IV of Columbus:

Thank you Mel, that was lovely to listen to.

There is just one small item:
39:20 - I hear "small body of his followers, twelve, whom ", text says "small body of his followers,[12] whom ". The [12] is a footnote reference, and should not be read.

I thought Krista said we could use our discretion as to whether to read them or not? I thought it was important to give the number, but not all their names.

That was my point. The number [12] is the footnote number, not the number of followers. If you read the footnote, there were actually 40 men.

Ha! Sorry. I'll fix it and leave out any number at all.

Very nicely read, as always, Mel

Just one small item for this section:
0:23 - There's an extra reading of the chapter title which should be removed (see bold below):
"by Sir Arthur Helps. Second Voyage of Discovery, Chapter 6, 2nd Voyage of Discovery"

Section 5 (Chapter 4) is PL OK now

Yes, I noticed that but I thought I had to read it that way. I'll take it out and resend. Thanks.

Thank you. Section 0 is PL OK
The microphone sounds great to me. Checker reports some moderate background noise, but I don't hear any at all.
