Other Fiction Twain, Mark: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. V1. 26 Feb 2009

busybee · 02-26-2009, 09:49 AM

This is a reformatting of Project Gutenberg's ebooks 7100-7107-h, an ebook series in 8 parts of Twain's Huckleberry Finn, first USA edition from 1885 with 174 illustrations. The 8 parts were reformatted into one file with redundant titles removed and a TOC added.

Anyone interested in working on an "Illustrated Classics" collection in HTML (which can then be converted to PRC, etc.)?

Not really meaning to be crittical, but my English teacher is probably spinning in his grave over calling Huckleberry Finn Historical Fiction. It might be considered that if written today, but it was modern when it was written.

So was the Bible, back in the day.

I choosed "Other Fiction" for the german version because you have to choose one of the automatically offered genres when uploading a book and none of the offered genres was adequate.

On the Home page of my Kindle 2 the title of this book is listed as "7100-h", not "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn".

That means that the metadata is not set correctly. You can adjust that with the mobi2mobi-tool, available in this forum or with Calibre (import, change metadata, save to disk)
