Thanks! This was one of the books I was going to format for myself "someday when I get around to it", and here you have done all the hard work for me

(btw, in the poem on the first page, you might want to put a noindent on the first line)

I'm so happy to have helped. I'm a big Bramah fan and am glad to give something back to this great community.

I haven't yet discovered how to non-indent (I'm learning as I go). What's the secret?

In the case of this book, you would just have to set the text-indent for the class .block_8 in your stylesheet from 1.5em to 0 (unless that does damage somewhere else - I haven't checked.)

EDIT: You might also want to add a bit of top- and bottom-margin to that class to set the poem off from the prose around it.

EDIT 2: If you want to format poetry really nicely, you could have a look at Pablo's nice epub tutorial.
