Both seem to me to contain most if not all of the information I'm looking for when I try to decide whether a book is likely to be of sufficient 'transcription quality' to start reading. A couple of minor quibbles/suggestions: 1. I would explicitly separate out the 'provenance' information from the 'author biography' information. Both are useful and worth having, but I think they serve slightly different purposes. 2. In the preface to 'Mr. Wray's Cash-Box' you say 'checked against a pdf of the 1864 edition'. It might be slightly clearer to say something like 'checked against a scanned image of the 1864 edition available at http://.....pdf' if that is indeed the case. BTW Please feel free to look at the edition notices of my last couple of uploads ('The Golden Bowl' and 'The Wings Of The Dove' both by Henry James) and tell me if I need to improve anything in them. They were done before I wrote my previous append, so I probably wasn't thinking too hard when I wrote them. And in any case it's hard to look at your own prose from someone else's point of view. |

I've downloaded your edition of The Golden Bowl, but as I am working on a horrendously complex ebook for a small publisher in the UK I don't know how long it will take to get back to you. |
