Also, for PL: I realize the policy is not to comment on pronunciation, but if you happen to know the pronunciations of these proper nouns, I would really be glad of correction!
I did some searching for each, but have never needed to pronounce them before.
Liege - lee-ayhz, not the same as feudal liege
Nimeguen - NYE-may-gen, found from another book at Librivox, since I don't see this spelling of the name in modern use.
Boufflers - BOOF-lers, which I feel silly saying. :lol:
I normally don't correct on pronunciation, just because English words can be pronounced differently in different parts of the world. The only exception might be place names, and that is very rare. I think your approach to these is fine!

Whoops!
I just realized now that I was sending you my rough unedited version, and not the finished product! :oops: :oops: :oops:
So I was just re-doing a lot of edits... Sorry about that.
This is the edited link that I should of sent out in the beginning: https://librivox.org/uploads/icequeen/cornetofhorse_25_henty_128kb.mp3

Chapter 8. I'm aware of some minor words added or altered, but nothing that changes the meaning.
Duration 23m29s

I'll be out for a bit on this last weekend of April, but still checking in as I get the chance. I will try to follow up on Monday, with anything I can't do on the go.

I'll do 24

I asked my librarian about the noise, and she said, "no one would come here
if they weren't allowed to talk out loud." So I read out loud.

Je lis à haute voix car refléchir fait trop de bruit!
