Unless I am deceived, the author made a mistake! OR it's a subtle dig at inaccurate histories in general. He left Japan soon after June, 1709, rounded the Cape of Good Hope and arrived in Amsterdam on 16th of April (Year unspecified, but must be 1710 at least). THEN inexplicably, (without reversing the rotation of the earth) sets out from Amsterdam for England on 10th of April, 1710!. I'm going to assume it's a subtle dig at inaccurate histories in general, as I don't think a mind like his would miss this...and it's just slightly buried in the text. Gotta be!

Thank you,
Brize

Over to Readers Found.
In the mind, or consciousness of the Earth this flower first lay latent as a dream. Perhaps, in her consciousness, it nested as that which in us corresponds to a little thought.--A.Blackwood

Sorry you didn't see this in the earlier thread but hopefully this will come through for you.

Thank you

The intro needs to say "Part 1, Chapter 8"
Need to repeat "part 1, Chapter 8" in the intro after saying "Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift"
Needs to say "End of Part 1, Chapter 8 in the outro"

No issues with the text itself

Very enjoyable reading... wish there were more sections left for this yahoo to do! (I'll keep my eye on this book in case anybody gets too busy, etc.)

Thank you,
