Book: Toilers of the Sea
I downloaded the zip file from here:
https://librivox.org/toilers-of-the-sea-by-victor-hugo/
I noticed some small portions of dead air in the following locations.
Track 26 - Part II Book 1 Ch 8-10: 1:34 to 1:47
Track 37 - Part II Book IV Ch 5-7: 20:36 to 20:48
Thanks for a great reading.
