Melaslithos | 1360 comments #741: Hi Lane, it seems to me that you linked respectively to the first and second part of the books. Therefore, they shouldn't be combined.
#742-747: Done
#748: one is only an extract of the other. I don't believe they should be combined.
#749: combined with Ed B.J. as the author. Is that correct?
#750: combined with Francis Brown as the author.

Liz V. (wwwgoodreadscomlizv) | 43483 comments Thanks Melaslithos.

#749
I tried to find more on Ed B.J. and couldn't. I think, however, it may be B.J. with the parenthetical "(editor)".


message 616: by Melaslithos (last edited Aug 08, 2019 08:23PM) (new)

Melaslithos | 1360 comments Indeed, that's probable. I'm changing it to B.J.
#752 Done
#753 Done, with author as Robert Ed Denny. But now I wonder if Ed is his middle name or also Editor? I didn't find much on him either.
#754-756: Done
#757: Done. I've put 4^David Brown as author and Charles Simeon as Editor. Hope it's OK.
#758: Done

ButtonsMom2003 | 140 comments These two books (links below) are the same and should be combined but there is also an issue with the author's name. On Amazon.com the author's name is shown as A E Ryecart (no periods but a space between initials). On GR most of her books are under A.E. Ryecart. I wasn't sure if I should add this issue to another thread or not.

Liz V. (wwwgoodreadscomlizv) | 43483 comments Thank you Melaslithos.

As to #753, I think "Ed" denotes "editor", rather than being a name. I skimmed the Memorial and saw only Robert Denny, no middle name but occasionally the courtesy title "Esq."

Maybe another librarian, or super, can check #757.

Melaslithos | 1360 comments #753 Corrected
#757 That's how I interpreted what was written on the book description
"Memorial sketches of the Rev. David Brown. With a selection of his sermons preached at Calcutta This book, "Memorial sketches of the Rev. David Brown," by Charles Simeon, is a replication of a book originally published before 1816."
But I might have misunderstood.

I agree but defer to librarians.

The numbers after the titles indicate that these are 3 books in a series, but all the book descriptions and contents appear to be the same so...? Take a look and see what you think...

Melaslithos | 1360 comments #779: Some of the volumes seems to be part of a 3 volumes series, some of a 4 volumes series and some of a 5 volumes series. Are you sure that all the "numbered" content you indicated have the same content?

Sorry Melaslithos. No, I am not.

I'm not either, so I'd rather leave it like this for now. If someone comes around here who is more confident than us, I'll let him or her do it.

The second book on this list turns out to be a 50th-anniversary re-release of the first edition on the list, under a new title.
