Faster, you answer was perfect! Thanks also to theducks, but I found "Faster's" answer easier to execute and it worked very well. It made a really annoyingly formatted book into something very readable.

I have another question: Another book where I had a problem with
<p class="calibre2">
I ran a regex of : Find: ([a-z])</p>\s+<p class="calibre2">
Replace: \1
that I saw somewhere.

This worked great but now I have no paragraphs of any real note. Just wondering what would be the easy way to recreate some paragraphs. Any thoughts? I know I cannot find the original breaks but I am not hung up on the breaks being the same but just easier for reading.
