I can’t comply with this request as written because I don’t have reliable access to the full text (or a verified chapter-by-chapter structure) of The Spanish Armada by “Martin Colin”, and producing a 10-page, 90–95% comprehensive summary with chapter-range coverage would require me to invent details—something you explicitly forbade.

Also, there’s a high risk of bibliographic ambiguity here: the best-known modern narrative history of the Armada is by Colin Martin and Geoffrey Parker (The Spanish Armada, 1988), and many catalogs list it under Colin Martin (not “Martin Colin”). If you meant that book, I can summarize it accurately if you confirm the edition or share the table of contents.

What I need from you to proceed (choose one)

  1. Confirm the exact book/edition
    • Publisher + year (or ISBN), and ideally a photo/text of the table of contents.
  2. Upload text for summarization (best)
    • Paste the TOC + chapter text (or one chunk at a time). I’ll then produce the 10-page structured summary exactly in your required format, one page at a time.
  3. If you meant Colin Martin & Geoffrey Parker (1988)
    • Reply: “Yes, that one,” and tell me which edition you have (hardback/paperback; any foreword/extra chapters). I’ll proceed using the standard structure—but I will still flag any places where editions vary.

If you reply with the table of contents (even just a photo), I’ll start immediately with Page 1 in the requested markdown style (bulleted sections, bolded key ideas, and 5 takeaways), and continue page-by-page on your prompt.

I still can’t produce “the next page” because Page 1 hasn’t been written and—more importantly—I don’t yet have the book text or a verified table of contents/edition to summarize without inventing material.

To continue in the format you requested (10 pages, chapter ranges, 800+ words per page, proportional coverage), I need one of the following:

Send one of these so I can start Page 1 (then Page 2, etc.)

  1. A photo or pasted text of the Table of Contents (best minimal input), plus publisher/year/ISBN; or
  2. Confirm you mean The Spanish Armada (Colin Martin & Geoffrey Parker, 1988) and tell me the edition; or
  3. Paste the text of the first section/chapter(s) you want covered in Page 1.

Once you provide the TOC (or confirm the exact edition), I’ll immediately generate Page 1, and when you say “next page,” I’ll deliver Page 2—with smooth transitions and no fabrication.

Reply with the TOC (photo is fine).

I can’t provide the “next page” yet because I still don’t have the book content (or even a verified table of contents/edition). Producing a detailed, page-by-page summary without that would force me to invent chapter structure and specifics, which violates your accuracy requirements.

What you can do now (pick one)

  • Upload or paste the Table of Contents (a photo is fine).
  • Or confirm the exact bibliographic record (publisher + year/ISBN).
  • Or paste the text for the portion you want summarized on Page 1.

Then I will do this

  • Build the 10-section plan (internally, not shown), write Page 1 (~800+ words, bulleted, with 5 takeaways), and wait for your “next page” to continue with Page 2, and so on.

Send the TOC image/text and I’ll start immediately.

I can’t move to a “next page” because there’s still no Page 1, and I still don’t have the source material needed to summarize The Spanish Armada accurately.

If you want me to proceed page-by-page exactly as specified, please send one of the following right now:

  1. Table of contents (paste it or upload a photo), OR
  2. Publisher + year/ISBN (to identify the correct edition), OR
  3. Text for Page 1’s coverage (paste the first chapter/section or the first ~3,000–5,000 words).

As soon as you provide that, I will generate Page 1. After that, your “next page” prompts will work, and I’ll deliver Page 2, Page 3, etc., with the required 10-page structure and takeaways.

I can’t produce “next page” because I still don’t have the book (or its table of contents/edition), and creating a 10-page, chapter-mapped summary without that would require fabrication.

To unlock the page-by-page summary, send any one of these:

  • A photo/paste of the Table of Contents
  • ISBN / publisher / year (so I can identify the exact text)
  • The text for the first section you want summarized (Page 1)

Once you do, I’ll write Page 1 immediately in your required markdown format, and then your next “next page” will correctly trigger Page 2.

I can’t generate “the next page” because there’s still no verified source to summarize from. Repeating “next page” won’t change that: without the table of contents or the text, any detailed 10-page summary would be invented.

Please send one item so I can start Page 1

  • Table of contents (paste or photo), or
  • ISBN/publisher/year, or
  • Paste the first chapter/section text (or the first ~3,000–5,000 words)

After you send it

I’ll produce Page 1 in the required bulleted markdown style with 5 takeaways, then you can say “next page” and I’ll continue to Page 2.

If you want, tell me which book you mean:

  • The Spanish Armada (Colin Martin & Geoffrey Parker, 1988) — is this the one?

I can’t provide “next page” because I still don’t have enough information to summarize The Spanish Armada accurately and non-inventively.

Send one of the following and I’ll immediately write Page 1 (then you can request Page 2, Page 3, etc.):

  • Table of Contents (paste it or upload a photo)
  • ISBN / publisher / year (to identify the correct edition)
  • The text you want covered in Page 1 (paste the first chapter/sections)

If you confirm you mean The Spanish Armada by Colin Martin & Geoffrey Parker (commonly cataloged under Colin Martin) and tell me the edition/year, I can proceed—while flagging any edition-dependent differences.

I can’t generate the next page because I still don’t have the book’s contents or confirmed edition/TOC, and your instructions require a non-fabricated, chapter-structured, 10-page summary.

One-step fix

Please paste either:

  • the Table of Contents (text or photo), or
  • the ISBN/publisher/year, or
  • the text you want summarized for Page 1.

Once you send that, I’ll write Page 1 in the required markdown format (bulleted sections + 5 takeaways). After that, your “next page” message will correctly produce Page 2.

I can’t produce “next page” yet. I don’t have the text or a verified table of contents/edition for The Spanish Armada, so I can’t write an accurate, chapter-mapped 10-page summary without inventing details (which your rules forbid).

Send this so I can start Page 1 (then Page 2, etc.)

  • Table of contents (paste it or upload a photo), or
  • ISBN / publisher / year, or
  • Paste the first chapter/section text you want covered.

If you confirm whether you mean The Spanish Armada (Colin Martin & Geoffrey Parker, 1988) or a different book, I’ll proceed accordingly.

I can’t generate “next page” because there’s still no Page 1 and no source material/verified structure to summarize from. Creating content anyway would mean fabricating details, which you explicitly disallowed.

What I need (one of these)

  1. Table of Contents (text or photo), or
  2. ISBN / publisher / year, or
  3. Paste the text for the first portion you want summarized (Page 1).

Once you provide that, I’ll write Page 1 in your required markdown format (bulleted sections + 5 takeaways), and then “next page” will produce Page 2.
