Enjoy.

Ver. 1 15th December 2009 (392 downloads)
Initial release.

Ver. 2 23th August 2010 (2 downloads for non-TOC & 7 downloads for TOC)
Cleaned up the formatting and added a second file with a TOC page included.

Ver. 3 23rd August 2010 (65 downloads for non-TOC & 79 downloads for TOC)
Resolve an issue where the title was a bit inconsistant with that of the one on the title page.

Ver. 4 18th October 2010 (179 downloads for non-TOC & 217 downloads for TOC)
Reformatted entire file so as to make it more compatible with reading systems and for file conversion.

Ver. 5 11th September 2011
Updated numerous headings with a great looking font (Agatha). Nice find Jellby, I love it, and it looks very appropriate for Lovercraft.
After researching the use of "shew" instead of "show", I've changed to using "shew" where I have found evidence that that was the original spelling. This may lead to having a mix of the use of "shew" & "show" in the same volume, but if the original text is in a particular form, then I think these books of mine should reflect that.
I've also updated the declaration page with a slightly modified version of the one that Prestidigitweeze sent me for my Lovecraft fiction volume so that it would also work for this book. (I hope the page makes sense and I haven't screwed it up)

Thanks indeed for the Lovecraft.

Katti's Cat · 03-05-2010, 08:57 PM

Thanks heaps for the collection

ghostyjack · 03-07-2010, 04:11 AM

Thanks, I'm currently working on getting his main works out as an epub, so should have them out very soon, then I'll be putting out his poems. So look out for them.

ghostyjack · 08-23-2010, 05:28 AM

As I've just released another H.P. Lovecraft book I thought it was time to revisit this one.

I've cleaned up the formatting to improve the reading experience and added a second file with a TOC page included in it. Apart from the TOC, there is no difference between the two books.

ghostyjack · 08-23-2010, 05:04 PM

Version 3 is uploaded with a corrected title in the metadata.

ghostyjack · 10-18-2010, 01:24 PM

Version 4 is now available with completely redone formatting. Most of the changes are non-visible, but will (I hope) make the file a bit more compatible with different reading systems and improve the appearance after converting to a different format.

Fantastic! Thank you!! I hadn't dared to hope any Lovecraft was available in the public domain. This made my day. And will now make for some great nights.

I have a Pandigital Novel and now some pandimensional stories (I don't know how the covers work though).

Please be careful what you download. Much of this material is NOT in the public domain in the United States, where you are. The uploader is in the UK, so for him the material is in the public domain, but that doesn't automatically mean that it's legal for you to download it.

Thanks for the heads-up Harry (love the Dalek, btw). I wish to utilize the benefits of MobilRead in good standing. How do I know what is and what isn't allowed? Aside from searching the net blindly, that is. Doing that could get me erroneous second-hand info. Is there a site you recommend for said verification?

Jellby · 01-01-2011, 05:23 AM

As a rule of thumb, anything you can find in the Project Gutenberg page (the main, US one) is free of copyright in the US. "Famous" authors or works not found there, but available in PG Canada or PG Australia, are almost surely not public domain in the US.

ghostyjack · 01-01-2011, 01:19 PM

Hmm, I thought all this volume was in the public domain in the States. Whoops! My mistake, I'll go over the volume and make a sanitised version so that U.S. readers can have a safe book.

It's entirely possible that it is - I haven't checked. I was just sounding a note of caution, because I know that a lot of Lovecraft's material is still protected by copyright in the US.
