You're welcome desertblues. It looks like it might win the poll and since it's in the PD I figured what better book to do some work on to have it ready for afterward.

And I end up voting for the countries I didn't read on my journey. Not that surprising really.

Leon Ma. Guerrero's version is the translation I've chosen as well. My wife read that version in college and suggested it to me. She also suggested a Tagalog translation but my Tagalog is not so good. She also mentioned liking Guerrero's translation of "El Filibusterismo" if anyone is interested in Rizal's sequel.

Does anybody have any views on Harold Augenbraum's translation? I cannot find an ebook version of the Italian translation, which I would have preferred as the translation is bound to be closer than the English one - I am saying in the chance event that anyone knows of such a version!

Thanks for the correction; I failed to copy'n'paste in its entirety.
