Any chance of someone uploading the short story My Old Man by Ernest Hemingway for the MobileRead Literary Book Club? It originally appeared in Three Stories and Ten Poems (1923).

This is a work that is in copyright, so you won't find it here. Also, it's not available as an eBook so you won't find it anywhere.

Thank you, Elfwreck, I had a horrid feeling that would be the case. I have the paperback version but don't like reading pb books anymore, the font is so small! Getting old lol.
On with the reading glasses. |

Is ELIZABETH AND ESSEX by Lytton Strachey in public domain? If so, could someone please be kind enough to upload an .epub version? I just watched the old Bette Davis version and thought it would be fun to read the book.

It's available at Project Gutenberg, so yes, it's in the public domain. I hope someone capable of doing a good job of formatting to epub can upload one for you, unfortunately, it's beyond me.
Just realised I found it on the Canadian PG, not sure where you are or if the rules are the same in your country. The link, for anyone who can convert it, is: http://www.gutenberg.ca/ebooks/strac...ssex-00-h.html Last edited by BookCat; 09-15-2012 at 02:50 PM. Reason: link added |

Is there any chance of some kind formatter making an illustrated lrf of Mary Roberts Rinehart's "The Window at the White Cat"? It's available from Manybooks, but they put a brief description in the places where illustrations should be. It isn't in the memorial library in any format.
Thanks. |
