A completely revision. I've painstakingly proof-read all four books against original page scans at Google books, and added all the missing formatting (accented letters, italics, the formatting of songs, etc.) as well as correcting a very large number of errors. For the latter three books in the volume, I've also added a total of 76 illustrations, which enormously enhance the book. The result of that, though, has been a drastic increase in the file size, but I think personally that the results are very well worthwhile. I now regard this book as "finished", so please tell me if you find even the smallest error in it. Uploaded v10.

hello, Harry, I have already tried several times, but i cannot upload this ebook to my device Sony Reader PRS650. The other books of this series you made could be uploaded without any difficulties. I don't know why. I cannot wait to read this book, but...

So i think i have solved the problem. In the beginning i uploaded it several times to the SD memery card, but of no avail. Later on I tried to upload it to the memory stick (you know sony reader prs650 has 2 slots for the MS and SD) and it was successful. I just don't understand why there is such kind of difference. But anyway thank you so much for your excellent work Harry.

Splendid. I am currently reading The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon and this is one of the Victorian adventure novel series referred to. I am systematically hunting down every book I can find.

Harry -- are you going to work on the Ayesha series at some point?

Do they need work? What problems have you found with them?

You had mentioned more to come at one point but I am not sure how many books are in that series.

To the best of my knowledge, all of Haggard's fiction is contained in the 16 volumes of this series. What do you believe is missing?

You are the master and I will take your word as the authority on this. Thanks for your work.
PS: Reading and enjoying A Thousand Miles Up the Nile -- it is interesting to compare it with The Rough Guide as I go along. |

All the Ayesha books are, if memory serves me correctly, in volume 2. I may be mistaken - it's a long time since I did this.
