It's astounding how many excess CSS classes there can be in commercial eBooks. I forget which book it was, but it had 142 extra CSS classes. That's ridiculous. I put in my own body and p styles, get rid of all the excess styles, clean up the stupid stuff, go through the XML files to see what's there and when done, I have an eBook that's much better formatted then it was before I got at it.
