The original message was a little vague on the details, so I contacted
Jeanette Hayward for some more information the the help request for:
Henry A. Beers A History of English Romanticism in the Eighteenth Century
Mrs. Hayward began this text three years ago, but has had to stop in a
near finished state to deal with serious family medical issuse.
A friend loaned some webspace, so you may download a sample 10 pages of
http://www.lakeclaire.org/beers/beers_sample.doc
The full text is about 250 pages worth of text.
If like what you see, and wish to contact Mrs. Hayward to adopt this
the text at: project, please contact her at: jeanett@teacher.com
She can also give you the web address for the full as-is transcription.
--------------
"Finished state" refers to the proofing, and/or final version (HTML, etc).
She has typed in everything except the index within the book which isn't necessary in this format.
Currently, it is in MS-Word, but can be converted to anything you wish to
use.
She has proofed as she went along, but as always, it would be better to
have someone else proof also.
There are some "misspellings" but those are the author's words, not typos.
So, she is willing to ship the original copy to the proofer.

A volunteer who has been working on a book for us for three years is very near completion, but can't do any more due to medical issues.
If anyone is willing to take a look at this book and help get it into a final format, please let me know.

Hello, My name is Jeanette Hayward. I began transcribing Henry A. Beers, A History of English Romanticism in the Eighteenth Century nearly 3 years ago. Because of a number of issues,I am just now getting to the finished state. Unfortunately, I will not be able to do much more with the transcription. But, I did want to submit the work because I feel it is important to be able to add it to the collection.
I tried sending this message to the submission team; however, my ISP apparently had difficulty recognizing the address as a valid e-mail address.
***
My HUGE thanks to anyone who can help!
Michael
