Thank you! I didn't read all the way to the part that said I had to ask first...

Everyone gets a second recording.

To tell you the truth, I don't know why I (we?) limited submissions to one last year.

I guess it was because finding 14 in the titles was so difficult. I (we?) wanted everyone to have a chance.

TriciaG, Gerald Crowe is not in the LV author index and I can find nothing about him except that he may have known J.R.R. Tolkien.

Although they do say the book is poems of Crowe they give the author as Crow - which doesn't help much, I still couldn't find anything that wasn't on the Haithi page- and I'm not permitted to read the scan so maybe you should check Kevin in case Tricia can't either. He was at Oxford when he wrote it but he seems to have survived the war

Thank you. Crow, not Crowe! That might help.

I'll keep googling.

May I claim a section to read "Fifteen Fat Steers", by Horace Annesley Vachell.

It is a story from the book "Bunch Grass: A Chronicle of Life on a Cattle Ranch") (published 1913)
The Gutenberg link to the book is here: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/10372

I would like to offer:
"Fifteen men on a Dead Man's Chest" by Young Ewing Alison.
This is an extended version of the pirate song from Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson.

https://biostat.wustl.edu/~erich/music/songs/derelict.html

As this is meant to be a sea-shanty would a sung version be ok. I can improvise a tune.

alan, I'll have to check to see if this text will work for us, so you might want to wait before recording. I'll be able to research this tomorrow.
