I'm rather pleased with the ePub version, and so I attach a sample here for others to examine.

I'd be interested to get feedback on any of the formatting.
Well, you obviously put in a lot of work... But...

On FBreader and Stanza, I'm afraid your work was for nought. The pretty initial caps are missing completely, leading to isspellings. My jetBook is a little kinder, the initial caps do display, but as separate graphics.

On ADE, there are still many misplaced bits of text, including: "The Author, Kingston, Surrey" which is displaced to the right. The upper right hand corner page numbers are inconsistent, sometimes appearing, and sometimes not. A few of the imbedded pictures appear in odd places, such as being alone on a page.

I'm afraid you're a victim of the disparate interpretaions of epub.

Good Luck,
