[First Project] The Lost Stradivarius

[Morgan W.]

I've been looking at the Wanted Ebooks list, and would like to start with The Lost Stadivarius by John Meade Falkner.

Gutenberg: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/14107

Scans: https://openlibrary.org/books/OL17960259M/The_lost_Stradivarius

Thanks,

Great, that one would be a good start.

This has already been attempted once before, please review this
discussion thread for notes and gotchas:
https://groups.google.com/g/standardebooks/c/F21iQkTPNrE/m/SqOQp2EEAgAJ

The cover art is still assigned, so you can continue with that cover art.

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! :)
