And books are frequently reissued to leverage advances in audio technology. So don't despair if you miss a broadcast! Soon it will be available at http://www.promo.net/pg/ for download. You are free to start a broadcast of your own, as long as you abide by the Gutenberg copyrights and procedures. Basically, broadcast but DON'T SELL. If you want to mark up a book for broadcast, watch these announcements. We will be publishing a manual to help you do so in these pages. At the moment, we would like novels and short stories in English more than anything else. But Spanish is in our immediate future, as are biographies and histories, thought these will be introduced somewhat later. The Legend of the Hound of the Baskervilles. In the time of the Great Rebellion, the Manor of Baskerville was held by Hugo. There was in him, a wanton, cruel humour. He came to love the daughter of a yeoman, who held lands near the Baskerville estate. But the young maiden would avoid him. So Hugo, with five or six companions, stole down on the farm and carried off the maiden. By the aid of the growth of ivy which covered the south wall of the manor, she escaped. Hugo cried that he would render his body and soul to the Powers of Evil, if he might overtake her. Hugo's companions followed him over the moor, it opened into a broad space, in which stood two of those great stones, which were set by forgotten peoples, in the days of old. The moon was shining bright upon the clearing, and there in the center lay the maid where she had fallen dead. Standing over Hugo, plucking at his throat, stood a great, black beast, shaped like a hound, larger than any hound that mortal eye has seen. The thing tore the throat out of Hugo Baskerville. Some thoughts on the Gutenberg Edition of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Born in the French river town of Nantes, Jules Verne (1828-1905) had a passion for the sea. The stimulus for 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was an 1865 fan letter from a fellow writer, Madame George Sand. Initially, Verne's narrative was influenced by the 1863 uprising of Poland against Russia. But in the 1860s, France had to treat Russia as an ally. Shark attacks, giant squid, cannibals, hurricanes, whale hunts, and other rip-roaring adventures erupt at random, giving the novel an air of documentary realism. Verne adds backbone to the action by developing three recurring motifs, Nemo's past life and future intentions, the mounting tension between Nemo and harpooner Ned Land, and Ned's ongoing schemes to escape from the Nautilus. Verne regards the sea from many angles, in the domain of marine biology, he gives us thumbnail sketches of fish, seashells, coral, sometimes in great catalogs that swirl past like musical cascades; in the realm of geology, he studies volcanoes literally inside and out; in the world of commerce, he celebrates the high-energy entrepreneurs who lay the Atlantic Cable or dig the Suez Canal. And Verne's marine engineering proves authoritative. His specifications for an open-sea submarine and a self-contained diving suit were decades before their time. Much of the novel's brooding power comes from captain Nemo. Inventor, musician, Renaissance genius, he's the prototype not only for countless renegade scientists in popular fiction, even for Sherlock Holmes! Dr. Robert D. Ballard, finder of the Titanic, confesses that this was his favorite book as a teenager, and Cousteau, most renowned of marine explorers, called it his shipboard bible. This Gutenberg translation is a faithful rendering of the original French texts published in Paris by J. Hetzel et Cie. Although prior English versions have often been heavily abridged, this new translation is complete, to the smallest substantive detail. F. P. WALTER.
