Unbelievably quickly, Archaeology of the Lands of the
Bible has been added to the collection. I don't know
who originally scanned it, but they really did an
excellent job. I think Elizabeth, you worked on it,
didn't you? 

I admit that I did not read it as I usually do when I
validate, but I did put in hard page breaks and made
sure that there were not missing lines at the top and
bottom of the pages. Also, my spell-check was on as I
checked pagination, and where there were words that
weren't place names I fixed them. The place names,
which I did check as I went along, seemed o.k. I think
I fixed most end-of the line hyphenations, but I don't
promise. I did scan and insert missing pages and
deleted some duplicate pages.

If you're interested in the subject, it looks like an
interesting and readable book--even though scholarly.
I did nothing with the index or bibliography, but I
think the scanner must have, because both looked more
readable and well-arranged than others I've seen.

So kudos to whoever was the person who submitted it,
and I apologize for its taking so long to get into the
collection--my fault and that of previous validators
who released it, not the administrators, who approved
it overnightm it seems. Now if they'd only approve and
add Robin Cook's Brain and Maynard Kendrick's Last
Express replacement for the one in the collection, I'd
have nothing else to gripe about. smile.
