The website also has the book in ePub format. That can be converted to Mobipocket using the free, open source Calibre application, and will be a better starting point for conversion than the PDF you provided.

(PDF conversion is dicey. The freeware Mobi Creator application can use a PDF as input to create a Mobi volume, but how well it does depends on the PDF.)

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.

I was wondering if you've been able to make any progress with Have His Carcase. I started working my way through a re-reading of Sayers after many years, but didn't want to leapfrog over that one to Gaudy Night if Carcase was on the way. To echo another writer, I don't mean to be greedy, but finding the other Sayers books here has been such a treat.

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

It's "The First Four Years." This was published posthumously in 1971, so is still in copyright, which is why I haven't been able to upload a copy.
Maybe, in 9 years' time...

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....
