I have all the Ed McBain in eBook except that novella because i didn't know about it. I got Dolls and Mischief at Uncle Edgar's and sent them off to 1dollarscan to scan them. Converted the pdf files using Abbyy Transformer, a few edits in and they were good to go. Unlike many of you, I don't have the choice to read paper due to vision damage.

I will say that not all the old books translate perfectly due type choices of the publisher. I've had my mom helping me with an old Alfred Hitchcock book where the original type was set too close together with a curlicue font. I'll know these stories by heart by time I am done next month.
