Hi, Mayrie. I'd be willing to scan some of these if we can find a proofer.

Notes have been made as to whether Bookshare has each of the books listed, and the quality of those in the collection. My hope is that not only will some folks be interested in completing the series, but also in rescanning the books on the list rated only "good". If any of you have read a book with a "good" rating, that is a generous assessment of quality. I understand that with this genre, nonstandard words are often present in books, and thus, a book's rating as "good" may be inaccurate. So, it'd be absolutely terrific if whoever might be interested in working on completing this series would also be willing to look at the books rated "good" that Bookshare has and determine whether they need to be rescanned. That way the series will be of excellent quality entirely. Here's the series description created by the reader, and the list of books in the series. The Lost Regiment, by William Forstchen. Series synopsis: in this alternate worlds science fiction, a Maine regiment during the American civil war--loosely based on the 20th Maine of Gettysburg fame--is transported to an alien world filled with Russians, Romans, Carthaginians, and human-eating Mongolesque aliens who think they own the world. Colonel Keane and the men of the 35th Maine battle the overwhelming might of the flesh-eating hordes with technical ingenuity, and by harnessing the oppressed human populations they find there. The series contains nine books as follows: 1. Rally cry, on bookshare rated excellent. 2. The Union Forever, not on bookshare. 3. Terrible Swift Sword, on bookshare rated excellent. 4. Faithful Lightning, not on bookshare. 5. Battle hymn, not on bookshare. 6. Never Sound Retreat, on bookshare rated good. 7. A Band of Brothers, on bookshare rated good. 8. Men of War, Not on bookshare. 9. Down to the Sea, on bookshare rated good. So, anybody interested in working on this series? If no one is interested in keeping records of who is doing which books, whether scanning or proofreading, I'd be willing to do that part. But someone else is welcome to step up and shepherd the project if interested.
