If you know of an weird-greekie-name publisher who issued an book which didn't come from Gutenberg ?
PG now issues some books with clickable TOCs but the older ones never have this so a good reason may exist for taking the Kindle freebie.
The question is, why do they omit illustrations ?
Their plan is to add a cover image and a clickable TOC and push it out so I don't see how taking the non-illustrated version helps unless Amazon objected to the larger file size.
Does anyone review PG output for points like that ?
