Yes, cushla is the anglified spelling of cuisle, a part of the endearment "a chuisle mo chroí" - "Oh, beating of my heart!" (or in more idiomatic English "Oh, my heart's delight").

We do have a few books on Ireland. I'll continue to feed them into LT today.

Simply sort by the secondary criterion first, and then by the primary criterion. So, if you specify sort by 'Date finished' first, and then sort by 'Date started', the result will be sorted by 'Date started', but any entries that have identical 'Date started' values will be sorted by 'Date finished' within 'Date started'. Of course, this assumes your question was related to sorting within catalogue view.

Hope I have been sufficiently clear - sometimes I run on a bit in my explanations ...

I can't double check right now because I'm packed for moving. But, as I always include the title as I see it on the title page, if it doesn't say a particular volume then you can assume this is not a part of a whole.

Lähettänyt: sylver 1:32 pm (EST) May 19, 2007

Ok. I planned to uncombine them, but I see that you just did that. Thanks!

Now, there is still some confusion as to exactly what books belong to that work. The edition I have is indeed an omnibus one, by Heineman/Octopus, 864 pages, and the mainly green cover that currently dominates its LT work page. All the six titles are listed on the cover page, which also has "complete & unabridged" printed at the bottom. There is no ISBN printed in the book itself.

However, some of the covers shown clearly belong to different editions, and LT keeps suggesting the work should be combined with editions of its constituent titles, including The Foundation Trilogy proper, probably because of LT users entering the wrong ISBN for their books. Or maybe they have the correct ISBN, but they have picked the wrong title? I guess we can't really tell without hearing from them.

Previously I have tried to minimize the confusion by identifying and separating out "hybrid" works, i.e. those where I believe the error is. We would still need the assistance of individual book owners to correct those errors, so that their books can be recombined with the appropriate works. Do you have some other idea that we could try?

Lähettänyt: sm5por 6:09 pm (EST) May 17, 2007
