The Fine Print

These texts aren't actually all from Project Gutenberg, but they are all in the public domain (in the U.S.).  GutenMark software was used to process the texts, in order to create LaTeX versions, and I hand-edited the texts afterward to make them as pretty as possible.  In some cases, illustrations or sections of text missing in original online editions have been restored.  A lot of errors have also been corrected.

If you prefer different page sizes, fonts, font sizes, margins, etc., gzipped LaTeX and LyX files for all texts may be found at my ftp site, and these may be used to reformat the texts at will.

How Can I Help?

If you feel the urge to help, I'd simply ask the following:

Read the texts, and let me know about any problems you discover.  But you needn't bother to tell me about any problems you find in preliminary texts.  (I already know there are lots of problems in them!)
