Well that’s good! I had hoped you would find some interest with that short little book after you made it a solo. I know I’m looking forward to hearing it.
From what I know, that event is in response to schemes related to arms. It speaks to our struggles today related to the second amendment.
Funny-I am having the same problem reading it that I had with “Life and Times of Joseph Warren”...the syntax of the written English used by the author is off enough that I am tripping up more than I wish I would
I’ll have a better handle on that when I start up again tomorrow night.
BTW...I had a nice moment with respect to Librivox...I was listening to Bill Whittle, Steve Green, and Scott Ott on their “Right Angle” podcast (great respect and enjoyment from all three of them) and they were discussing the subject of cannibalism (some Leftists were obliquely suggesting that humankind should “rethink” the taboo of cannibalism!) and Bill Whittle said that one of his all time favorite short stories was one from Mark Twain titled: “Cannibalism In The Cars” written in 1868 that was a story about a Senator on a train that gets stuck in the snow in the middle of winter out on the prairie fifty miles from civilization.
It sounded very interesting, so I went on YouTube to look for one, and...there were probably 5-10 different versions, many from Librivox.
I listened to one at random, and the voice of the speaker was so unpleasant, I grabbed a different one. I ended up going through 4 or 5 versions, all of which were flawed to my ear in some way or another, background noise, irritating voice patterns, etc., and I decided to see if, in the light of a most recent comparative process, how my recording sounded.
Heh, I was astonished how good in comparison mine sounded. Not quite professional as some I listened to, but compared to those...mine sounded quite good.
I have been hesitant to go in an listen to other recordings, simply because I didn’t want to confront how bad I might sound in comparison, but I was very pleased by the comparison!
