Sorry for the slow reply to this thread, our internet died and it's taken our ISP nearly 5 days to get it fixed. (Withdrawal symptoms were setting in!).
Not sure about the *exact* intent of the CC license, whether it includes the wrapper or not, but having talked with the author about this, her main concern is that text isn't tampered with and the authors are credited; otherwise, she wants as many people as possible to have the chance to read it, so the more formats and the more places it can be downloaded, the better. |

The author's concern is understandable. That's why I asked instead of uploading my version right away. I am proof reading the book now (I found the "book" issue mentioned by badgoodDeb in this thread and other minor errors). Maybe when I finish proof reading I could send you a copy in lrf format for the Sony Reader and an HTML version to be used as source for other formats. Then you could evaluate with the author the convenience of distributing it. |

So, if that is acceptable to you and the author, I offer to upload here the version I am working on, once proof-read. Of course I am making no changes to the text, nor to the license agreement and am not putting my name anywhere on the book, and authors are duly credited in the first page. BTW, great book. I have little children and some parts of the story broke my heart (It is difficult for me to express my feelings, english is not my mother language). |

Yes, it is a good book. When I was transcribing it from the original hardback, there were places where I had to stop and wipe my eyes because I couldn't see the screen! |

Ok, thank you very much. In a few days I will have the final lrf version ready for upload and after that I will make an HTML and ePub version.

A moving story to be sure. As one who has researched some of his own family's losses via the holocaust, I admire and applaud the strength and tenacity of the extended Kanner family in coming to terms with their ordeal.

So, is it possible now to download the book in lrf format?

If you refer to the version I am working on, it will be available in 3 or 4 days at most, as I am proofreading it (already covered 400 pages out of 600).
My version has TOC, images sized for a 6" screen, and links from the body to the glossary. If you are interested just in the text, you can donwload the book in several formats, including lrf, from the website mentioned somewhere in this thread. |

Originally, I intended to upload the lrf version as soon as I had delt with the images and glossary, but then I started reading it myself and found the "book" issue discovered by badgoodDeb and many word separation errors. In the meantime, I also optimised image sizes to fill the 505 screen. So wait a couple of days and you will have it.
