I tried loading that collection of HTMLs into Calibre. Lo and behold it sort of worked. Calibre automatically made up a ZIP of the whole mess and apparently used it to construct the .mobi. That works in my Kindle, giving me the chapter-at-a-time navigating ability, but it didn't actually install a TOC. Oddly, if I page back far enough I find working (non-blue) links to chapters embedded at the top of the text. But I can't jump to it.

At least I can use the navigator to speed through when I'm re-reading. Maybe there is still a way to get a TOC.
