What is an eBook?

The eBooks provided on this website are provided as a searchable PDF document (Acrobat format Document) and so you can search for names, places and items many of which are not indexed in the normal index. The Adobe™ Acrobat™ (.pdf) format requires the FREE Adobe™ Acrobat™ Reader . Download and installation instructions for the Adobe™ Acrobat™ Reader are on the Adobe™ website. This reader allows the viewing and printing of the book. For a general definition of an eBook see the Wikipedia entry on the subject.

The eBooks are available on CD and as downloadable files which you can download from lulu.com or from this shop at a discount.

If you order a CD then the HTML and PDF files are directly accesible on the CD.

The eBooks provided are a high quality (600dpi) scanned copy of a printed document. This is then interpreted by ABBYY FineReader® intelligent OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and PDF conversion software.

No warranty is given about the accuracy of the copying. Due to the nature and style of printing in old documents the text interpretation by optical scanning of the document may not be a precise interpretation of the written text. Users should refer to the scanned image to validate the interpretation of the material.

Here is a summary list of the downloadable books I have available on lulu.com.
