This project has now been in progress (on and off) for four years during which time I’ve moved home four times across two continents, changed job multiple times and learned to play two more musical instruments (albeit not very well). It’s no wonder it’s taken so long to reach this first big milestone.
However, all 1844-45 editions are now online here.
The 1844-45 editions are just 56 pages in total but the next challenge — the 1865-67 editions — will be the considerably larger at 520 pages. And there’s more than twice that in the Siam Times! All these are scanned and waiting to be processed but I’ll be developing a set of tools to get that done.
