IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Hi,
I'll MC this for you.
I added the ~ to attract a proof listener. If you already have one let me know.
Thanks.

Thank you for setting this up Amy! I'll populate the MW by tomorrow; I plan to go slow with this one. We'll need to wait for a DPL, thank you for adding the ~

Section 1 is PL OK :thumbs:

And so very nice to listen to!

(I don't have MW access yet, so you can toggle it in the MW for me.)

With this caveat: If you end up deciding to omit the Introduction, the intro for this section will need to be switched to the full LV disclaimer.

Thank you! :)
Section 2 is ready for PL , some portions have not very pleasant descriptions but I guess it was necessary for this book.

I will have Section 0 up in a few days, was waiting for my sore throat to settle a bit.

Well, that was a little gristly, eh? And it's not surprising to see the latent racism pop up in this book - so prevalent of that time. I love the pictures that go with the chapters. (Too bad we can't see the gorgeous colors of the water in them!)
