But their "source" page, which is here, does not read like a sound justification for posting it. So I ask: should I or shouldn't I? Thanks in advance for your help.
I see that the translator died in 1942, and Gandhi died in 1948. Canadian copyright law is life+50. We can host this ebook.


P.S. I don't usually read this thread, so if you need a second opinion on a copyright question, please pm me.
