Re the Kybalion: this book is widely available. There is a Wikipedia entry on it, with links to some of the locations.
It is even on Project Gutenberg: http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/14209 where an experimental PRC/mobi version is available for download. It's perfectly legible but has some formatting defects. I'm busy with some other conversions but will try and find time to make a conversion later today, or tomorrow. |

The scan has a lot of text cut off at the margins, and is slow going. I think tha it will be about another month or six weeks, as I'm doing a few pages a day.

Book request
Hi
I'm fairly new to the forum and I have really enjoyed reading the Laura Ingalls Wilder books which I downloaded to my Kindle 2. It was like taking a step back into my childhood reading them again. Please would it be possible to request The Last Four Years. Many Thanks, if it is possible. Kind Regards Caroline |

I am trying to find a copy of the Pinsky translation of the Inferno of Dante Alighieri for my iRex iLiad. So far, I have turned up nothing, for love or money, believe it or not! I cannot even find a copy-protected version to buy even...! Anyone know where I can find this?
Thanks for your response! |

I don't find it surprising that you don't find a commercial ebook version of a translation of 14th century poetry... You can forget about finding it here, at MobileRead, at least until 50 years after the death of Mr. Pinsky (to whom I wish a long life).
But, if you can do with the Longfellow translation, it's available right here. |

Can anyone create a bilingual (English and French) version of Antoine de Saint-Exupery's Le Petit Prince (110th anniversary of Saint-Exupery's birth this year)? Thanks!

I'm sure someone could if it is available to be created. It was published in 1943 - I can't find it at Project Gutenberg....
