COMPLETE [Mil Hist] With the Judæans in the Palestine - dl

chulsky · Post by **chulsky** » December 29th, 2015, 8:07 am

With the Judæans in the Palestine Campaign by John Henry Patterson (1867 - 1947).

All audio files can be found on our catalog page: http://librivox.org/with-the-judaeans-in-the-palestine-campaign-by-john-henry-patterson/

From the Preface: The formation of a Battalion of Jews for service in the British Army is an event without precedent in our annals, and the part played by such a unique unit is assured of a niche in history owing to the fact that it fought in Palestine, not only for the British cause, but also for the Restoration of the Jewish people to the Promised Land. ( J. H. Patterson)

1. How to claim a part, and "how it all works" here To find a section to record, simply look at point 5. below at the sections. All the ones without names beside them are "up for grabs." Click "Post reply" at the top left of the screen and tell us which section you would like to read (include the section number from the left-most column in the reader list, please). Read points 6. to 8. below for what to do before, during and after your recording.
2. New to recording? Please read our Newbie Guide to Recording!
3. Is there a deadline? We ask that you submit your recorded sections within 1-2 months of placing your claim. Please note that to be fair to the readers who have completed their sections in a timely way, if you haven't submitted your recording(s) after two months, your sections will automatically be re-opened for other readers to claim, unless you post in this thread to request an extension. Extensions will be granted at the discretion of the Book Coordinator. If you cannot do your section, for whatever reason, just let me know and it'll go back to the pool. There's no shame in this; we're all volunteers and things happen.Please do not sign up for more sections than you can complete within the two month deadline.

There's your MW Mark. Let's hope a DPL will turn up soon.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Happy New Year!

What an interesting book! I would like to read the Introduction please (and the Preface if you want it) unless you are doing it yourself.

Thank you, David!

I'm glad you like it. The Preface / Intro are yours, thank you!
Happy New Year, all!

OK, here's the introduction!

That was so short, I think I'll have another chapter please. Here's Chapter 36.

https://librivox.org/uploads/aradlaw/withthejudeans_36_patterson_128kb.mp3 (4:37)

This book is interesting and rather addictive. I'll also take Chapters 1 and 25 please.

Thank you, Beth, for your interest and enthusiasm. If you wish, we could turn it to your solo project, and I'd be happy to DPL, let me know.

Elizabby · Post by **Elizabby** » January 3rd, 2016, 10:37 pm

Thanks for asking, but I'd better not. I'm pretty heavily committed with the narration for Wives and Daughters and I still have 20 chapters to go. I was just taking a break doing some short chapters for a change! I'll probably do more, but I doubt I'll have the time to read the whole book.

Elizabby · Post by **Elizabby** » January 4th, 2016, 1:53 am

Chapter 1 is here, 7:25 long.

Thank you, Beth!

Beth, sections 00, 01 & 36 are PL OK.

Mark, I'll put myself down as DPL if you don't mind.
