Very nice job reading, Jake!

Just one small correction:

12:35 "immature years of the reign" I heard "immature reigns of the reign"

I look forward to hearing more.

Hi there,

I just got my 1 minute test approved and am eager to get started reading. I read Livy (and Polybius) while teaching English in Korea 20 years ago, and loved it.

I’d be happy to do Book 1, chapters 32-39, and more once I’m done with those.

Please let me know if that works for you. I could do others if you want, I don’t really have a preference.

Thanks,

Chris

Thank you. Can you recheck what my section is? I just noticed the Sabines on p. 86 starts with chapter 16, not 18.. I am fine with 16-21 but just wanted to be sure I was following the divisions as you want them.

Thanks for checking. It is correct as it is - in truth, the wars with the Sabines (and the Veii.... and the Aequi...) span for many many chapters throughout these books. It would be impossible to actually keep them in one section each. As of course each book is too long to have it in one section and each chapter too short, I divided them in somewhat equal chunks, trying to respect some form of unity, but it will not be exactly self contained, since that is not how the book written.
