Tiny change to encoding of Complete Prose Works

User Ira Chernus brought to our attention the appearance of the word "overhended" in "Hudson River Sights." Presumably, this is an error for "overbended," but since the error is in the original print I have added markup rather than change the basic transcription.

Typo corrections in Amanuensis letter

User "Spaanse Spook" noted that our transcription of the 12 June 1863 letter from Albion F. Hubbard to Austin Rice (prc.00118) misspelled "comfortable," and I noticed that "Written" was also misspelled in the note. I made both corrections.

Link to UNC Press fixed

Matt Cohen noticed that the link to the University of North Carolina Press website was broken on the Archive's "Links" page. I have fixed it.

Cultural geography scrapbook, additional marginalia, and Whitman's Reading List published

We have published images and a full transcription of Whitman's massive cultural geography scrapbook, along with transcriptions of dozens of related manuscripts. The SOLR-generated indexes for both the marginalia/annotations and the manuscripts sections have been re-generated as a result, to include these new transcriptions. A separate index page for the geography scrapbook was created, as well as a page for an image-viewer, in which users can flip through images of the scrapbook.

We have also published a series of original essays that explore prevalent themes in this new material, as well as Whitman's Reading: A Bibliographical Handlist, a new resource in which we have begun tracking all of the texts that Whitman is known to have read. 

To account for all of this new material, the introductory text and menu on the marginalia/annotations index page has been updated. 

We would like to thank the National Endowment for the Humanities for their generous support of this work.
