Yes. I couldn't find an epub version on here, just a mobi and another file format that also has bold text.

Code:
.bold {
    font-weight: normal
    }
But looking at the structure of the book, that will also get rid of stuff that should be bolded.

It looks like there's only two standard body paragraph classes (one for indented, and one for unindented), so maybe there's some regex that would help you remove the bold spans from just those paragraphs.
Thank you for your help. I decided to search for another public domain copy and found an Australian one that is perfect.
