First of all, thank you for the beautiful cover for "Stupor Mundi"!!

As for the biographical information, I came across that, too, and extensive search revealed nothing else.

I don't think that that Lionel Allshorn was our man. He was only 26 and the author seems much older. So, for that reason, I left the biographical information as unknown.

OK, we'll err on the side of caution and not use that biographical info. :) It's removed again.
Serial novel: The Wandering Jew
Medieval England meets Civil War Americans: Centuries Apart
Humor: My Lady Nicotine

There is a clearer image of the cover here if you are interested https://archive.org/details/cu31924013441609 ?

It looks very dark on my computer settings - it's a trap depending on the actual cd cover you make, mostly people see something like this https://librivox.org/search?q=limanora&search_form=advanced. I'm not colour or graphic expert , but trying different background colours can improve visibility and different software seems to have options to change the text/background contrast and brightness. I have added it but if you want to fiddle with anything just use all the same file names and upload and tell me
I like looking at this page https://archive.org/details/librivoxaudio?sort=-date , it has recent publications first, to get an idea of whether what I did works and what others are doing :D
