The general rule on Librivox is that whether to read footnotes that contain additional information is optional and the BC gets to decide whether those should be in or out (and then it should stay consistent across the project) but footnotes that are only citations for source material should be skipped.

Where are the section breaks in the chapter? The source document that I am looking at does not give a word count. So if you could give me the key words, or page numbers in section 1 to read to and to start from in section 2, it will be most helpful. Thanks

I would suggest breaking on page 147 for the section marked as §162, at the second paragraph.

There are just a few issues with an otherwise good recording.

The text "Those who led...and town meetings" is repeated at 7:06-7:20 and 7:21-7:35.

The text "British soil" is repeated 8:21 (before footnote) and 9:09 (after footnote)

At about 13:53 it should read "to keep the former" not "to fight the former".

At about 16:20 it should read "a Boston merchant" not "a British merchant".

At about 23:36 It ends with "end of section 1" while in the intro it reads as "chapter 2 section 1". Do you want the parts of chapters to end with just saying section # or do you want to reflect the start? Let me know and I'll review multipart chapters as you prefer.

Thanks,

M

The end should definitely be chapter #, section # where chapters are split because of length. I recorded that wrong. Thanks, I will get all these fixed soon.
