[First project] A Narrative of the Life and Travels of Mrs. Nancy Prince by Nancy Prince

[MattM999991]

I'd like to try a book conversion. From the list of books wanted, I would like to try converting this book: A Narrative of the Life and Travels of Mrs. Nancy Prince by Nancy Prince.

Great, that one would be a good start.

This one is slightly unusual in that there is a table of contents with
headers, but no chapter divisions in the book itself. I think it would
be helpful to make an editorial choice and adapt those ToC headers to
actual chapter divisions. Fortunately this book is very very short.

Otherwise this should be pretty straightforward.

Make sure to read the Standard Ebooks Manual of Style before starting,
as you won't know what to fix if you haven't read the standards. In
particular, please closely review the semantics, high level patterns,
and typography sections:

https://standardebooks.org/manual

https://standardebooks.org/manual/latest/4-semantics

https://standardebooks.org/manual/latest/7-high-level-structural-patterns

https://standardebooks.org/manual/latest/8-typography

The step by step guide will take you from start to finish. Please follow
it exactly:

https://standardebooks.org/contribute/producing-an-ebook-step-by-step

This page on common issues in older books may be useful:

https://standardebooks.org/contribute/how-tos/common-issues-when-working-on-public-domain-ebooks

Please email often if you have any questions at all. Our standards are
well-established so there is probably already a standard for formatting
whatever problem you've encountered.

When you're ready, email back with a link to your Github repository so
that I can assign you a manager and reviewer.

Have fun! :)

Thank you, I will go over the style guide and these sections in particular and then get started and will share a Github repository.
