[Next Project] Wolf Solent by John Cowper Powys

[Jason Livermore]

I'm looking at this for my next project. Kind of long, but I didn't see anything too tricky.  It was published in 2 volumes, and I assume we don't need to keep that division.  The chapters have names but are not numbered, except in the ToC.

FP vol 1: https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20250719
FP vol 2: https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20250731

OK, sounds good. Yes, merge the volumes.

If the chapters aren't numbered in the body then I don't think we need
to include numbers either. Though the files will of course be named
`chapter-n.xhtml` etc.

Please send a repo link once you start. Thanks!

Lukas, a question on modernizing and reconciling hyphenated words.

First example is "Slow-Worm of Lenty".  It is a chapter title and also used in the body, both as a subject and as the title to the poem --  but also appears in the poem itself, and I wasn't sure about modernizing hyphen words in verse, that occurs in a prose work.   The modernize script removes the hyphens from all of these.

(and bits of the poem in the following pages.)

The other example is "Red-cliff bay" and "Red-cliff sands" in a verse section,

but a mention of "Redcliff" in the prose.  Should I remove all these hyphens to make it consistent?
