Hi Andrea,

Thank you for your lightning response!

That is of course a shame. I also bought the book, with the google image but received a book with a different cover.

Ah well we will manage. Thanks a bundle.

Regards,

Hi!

No, I'm sorry, but I don't own a physical copy of this book. I found my copy of the cover online with a google image search.

I'm sorry I can't help. Good luck!

Andrea

Hi,

I read your input. Maybe a silly question, but I am looking for the cover in High Resolution for a benelux release for this product but noone seems to have this. Do you have this book with this exact cover?

Could you let me know?

thanks.

Wow. You did an excellent job of communicating the intensity of the subject matter of this book, while piquing my curiosity.

Just as an additional note. Audacity has just made a big update to their software. I haven't checked it out yet, but for those of you with limited resources for recording, it's worth a look.

Oh wow! I remember this book well, especially Catherine's tricks to drive her suitors away. I think I might check it out from the library for a reread. :)

Congratulations on your one year anniversary. There's a lot of good information on recording your booktalks in this episode. I would warn though that using Audacity is a "you get what you pay for" kind of deal in that it is a free program. The noise reduction process Andrea mentioned is not so much a reduction as it is a squelcher, and not a very good one at that. It tends to leave a faint ghost sound of what you tried to remove and can make the speaker sound somewhat tinny. It's best to leave the ambient noise alone if you don't wish to pursue more professional recording equipment.

Comment on Happy Anniversary!
