Hurrah! Thank you Sarah and Tricia, and thanks again to all the readers.

Tricia, when you've catalogued this one, can you please go to the first volume's catalogue page: https://librivox.org/little-journeys-to-the-homes-of-the-great-vol-1-by-elbert-hubbard/ and add Volume 2 is available here, (with a link) at the end of the summary. Thanks.

Thank you Tricia!

Sorry to be a bother about one last thing - I notice that Vol. 2 is in the Social Science Category. Looking at the other works in there it doesn't fit at all. Presumably I selected poorly when setting up the template. Vol. 1 is in Culture and Heritage, which seems to fit much better. Can you move Vol. 2 from Social Science to Culture and Heritage please?

(Both are also in biography, but that's obviously fine.)

Hmm. Culture & Heritage is a fiction genre, not non-fiction. Would "House & Home" work? I haven't listened to any of these to see if they're actually about their homes, or just about their lives.

IMHO I wouldn't call these House and Home. To me, that's more like gardening books, etc. To answer your question, Tricia, he talks about the home itself, but not really in terms of bricks and mortar - more in terms of his personal journey to the house in order to find out more about the person, the kind of people he meets along the way, and how the environment may have shaped that person's life.

These are definitely Non-Fiction > Biography, and I thought it was best to have as few genres as possible. Should we just leave it at that? The only other non-fiction genre that might fit is Literary Collections > Essays, but even that's a bit of a stretch I think.

I'm comfortable with that. I've changed both volumes to simply Biographies & Autobiographies.

Sounds good to me. Thank you both.
