Biggers, Earl Derr: Charlie Chan Omnibus v2 22 may 2009
Here comes another one of HarryT's great omnibus editions. I leave Harry's comments as they are in his original posts. They show with how much care and love these editions were made:

PS: Harry has given me the gracious permission to convert all his Omnibus editions to ePub! Thanks a lot! (love letters, gifts and karma go to Harry) Here are the LRF and PRC editions. MR user "Bones" has been kind enough to supply an unabridged version of "Charlie Chan Carries On" so, as promised, here's a new version of the omnibus with the unabridged version of that book. The new version is about a third longer than the previous, abridged, version of the book. Uploaded v2. (27 views so far) I have removed this version, as Harry uploads epubs now himself.

This is my first post! I hope I won't make a hole in the qwater.
I have among my files an e-text of Earl Derr Biggers' "Charlie Chan Carries On" which is about 30% longer than the P.G. Australia's version. I can't remember where I got it from, and it has now apparently disappeared from the web, but I think the e-text was "legal" - and in any case it should be out of copyright in almost all countries, except for some odd places like the U.S. I haven't got a "hard" copy of the book to compare it to, but it looks definitely "fleshier" and better (though I can't pretend to be a literary critic) than P.G.'s. Rather than waiting for me to become proficient in the art of converting e-text for the Mobileread public, which might take forever: is there anyone interested and willing to do the conversion? How and when can I send the file (a text file) to him? Bones |
