PL OK!
Nicely read!

Thanks very much. One question I had, should I read footnotes or skip, e.g. in The Temeraire?

Please do not read the footnotes but please do read the words in brackets before the start of the poem.
Thank you for checking

Hi Juliana
Thank you for your recording
The text is correct and clearly read

Just 2 minor corrections needed:
- at the beginning please say "The Battle for the Mississippi by Herman Melville, read for Librivox.org by Juliana (April 1862)" rather the introduction you have used.
- please leave 5 seconds of silence at the end (this is a requirement for all Librivox recordings)

Then upload again with the same Filename.
Very good for a first recording
