Hello there,

I'm interested in reading section 20: John Burroughs at Home: The Hut on the Hill Top

However, since I'm new, I'd like to know what to do with the citations (there are five of them, #9-13) - do I ignore or read them? Please advise.

Thank you and have a good day/night.

Thank you for claiming. You were right to ask, as there is no “rule”, so it varies from project to project. My view is that footnotes are at the reader’s discretion, but any citation or reference to another page or work are superfluous in an audiobook and should be omitted.

Hello Lynnet,

Thank you for the clarification! Alrighty, so, for this project, I will not read the citations.

Thank you.
You don’t need to provide the source. The text is in the first post.

Hi again Lynne,

Might I make 'bookends' with this book by claiming Chapter 1, Marshall Field?

Thanks,
