People are, of course, very welcome to post whatever (legal) book they wish.

However, there is little point in posting a duplicate book which adds no significant benefit to books which are already here. If the poster considers that their work does add something to the original, it would be helpful if they could state what it is for the benefit of downloaders.

A quick look at this book, however, reveals a number of things which could be improved:

1. It does not preserve em-dashes; they have been replaced by hyphens (hyphens and dashes are typographically entirely distinct).

2. The sub-title of each chapter (the time and date) has been "absorbed" into the body text of the chapter.

3. No attempt has been made to convert the "in-line" notes to end-notes, and since there is no clear deliniation of notes within the text it's not always clear what's "note" and what's "text".

4. The table of contents title is not centred.

Addressing these issues would significantly improve the book.
