Introduction

E-Books (electronic books) are not a new concept. Since 1971, Project Gutenberg has been converting public domain books (via OCR and other technologies) into electronically-accessible texts for years now. These books are often web-viewable -- but lacking HTML conversion.

E-Books, especially those optimized for the web, have many advantages:

• They are free
• They can be printed and read non-electronically
• They can be read on personal computers
• They can be read on handheld devices (eg., Palm)
• They are cross platform
• They can contain cross-linking (for jumping to chapters from tables of contents, or to jump to footnotes for various words, for example)

We hope you enjoy this section -- and even see fit to read one of our provided texts, listed below.

Available E-Books

Currently I have had time to convert these books into HTML format:

• Kidnapped, by Robert Louis Stevenson
  
  
• The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, by Robert Louise Stevenson
  
  
• Murders in the Rue Morgue, by Edgar Allan Poe

Watch this space for upcoming books translated into Web format!
