Reading Calibre Manual in Cybook Gen 3

Last year I used a program to download an online book
http://www3.shropshire-cc.gov.uk/etexts/E000112.htm Precious Bane and I used Calibre for converting it to mobi. Now I'm studying the Calibre Manual in greater detail and wanting to do the same.

The problem is, i have totally forgotten which program I used to get it off the net, so I'd much appreciate a memory jog, or a similar way of getting a book off the net to read on pc or ebook reader.

Use your browser to save the page to your desktop. You'll get an html file and a folder of stuff. Drag the html file into Calibre. Calibre will create a zip file of everything. Then you can delete the file and folder. Convert to any format you need.
