Reported by a listener:
’David Crockett, Scout": Chapter 7 "Hard fighting" seemed to be from another book as it is of a totally different topic. So I checked the written version in the Gutenberg project. And indeed the chapter title is correct, but apparently not the content of it.
Confirmed, the intro and title is to David Crockett, Scout Chapter 7 Hard Fighting

but the chapter content itself is Chapter 7 Some Stategems from Captain John Smith

Both chapters were read by the same reader. Not sure how this one slipped by the PL unless he was PLing both books at the same time?

Hi Jo, Do you want me to manage investigation and fix on this?

Sure if you would like to, go ahead. If you need help replacing the files at archive, just let me know.

Dave Capper was the reader of both of the Section 7s. My plan is to PM and email him to ask if he has the actual David Crockett, Scout Chapter 7 recording. If so then for me to PL it etc. If not, or if I get no response in one month, then I will record the chapter and etc. to fix this. Does that all sound ok?

This should be all fixed. I don't know how to change the topic title.

Edit: This IS all fixed.
