RE the summary for Clementina , you seem to have swapped a line ,
the sentence ,
the Catholic pretender to the British throne
belongs after James Stuart not the princess. I think it needs to be changed on the pdf,

Thanks for the catch, Anne! I had noticed that the second sentence of the blurb began with three consecutive prepositional phrases and I attempted to reword the sentence to avoid confusion, but I was clearly confused about the meaning myself! I have re-uploaded the PDF (https://librivox.org/uploads/covers/Salvationist.zip) with the correction you recommended.

The summary does sound a little like a Danny Kaye record I had many years ago - but who's to say that will not attract listeners :D . All done . Wonder if she did get to marry him - as far as I remember he didn't have any heirs but the British History I was taught did tend to label him the young pretender who , apart from a romantic crossing to Skye wasn't worth worrying about, "England was ruled by an Orange called William and Mary" who had no offspring , followed by Queen Anne who had 100's who all died and then a German (well a Hanoverian really). But it all worked out in the end.
All linked.

Thank you!

I suppose you could try running the Hebrew text through Google Translate to get a vague idea -- its rendition of the Hebrew summary was more or less readable. Also, I found this when I was looking for more info (translation of just the first bit): http://onthemainline.blogspot.com/2014/01/a-beautiful-translation-of-gordon-poem.html#disqus_thread .

Hello, here is the cover for "The Rock Frog" by Harriet A Cheever

Cover: https://librivox.org/uploads/covers/rockfrog_1710.zip
Project: https://librivox.org/the-rock-frog-by-harriet-anna-cheever/
Image Source: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:A_frog_sitting_on_the_shore_of_a_lake._Coloured_wood_engravi_Wellcome_V0020535.jpg

Two things:
1) This is my first set, so if anything is off, or what not, please let me know, and I'll make proper adjustments. Also, I had to re-create the template into a PSD since my mac doesn't have a program to support DOC files (and rtf wasn't budging).
2) I also claimed "Some Haunted Houses of England and Wales", however, I am listed as Z, rather than Zelina. I guess I must have hit enter a bit too early. Sorry about that, but I am getting those in by the end of the weekend.

Caught - and I've fixed Z (not that we have any other covermakers starting with Z) . .......... and linked.

Nice cover :D . We do have a few using Macs - I can tell by the zip files - and a range of templates in the first post if that helps ?
