An EPUB is pretty much a "ZIP" file + a few little extras.

So you could have unzipped your book:

1. Take your .epub + rename to .zip:

- Example.Book.epub
- Example.Book.zip

Then unzip it using whatever you use for ZIP files.

Inside, you'd see folders with your HTML+CSS files:

- ../Text/Chapter01.xhtml
- ../Text/Chapter02.xhtml
- ../Styles/style.css

* * *

In Sigil, you'd then be able to:

1. Create new EPUB2 book.

2. File > Add Existing Files.

3. Go to the folder where you unzipped the book, and find your HTML files. Add them.

Then you wouldn't have had to manually copy/paste everything over.
