 Note
to buyers.
Although the underlying book material is
now in
the public domain due to their age, much
additional editing, cropping and
deleting of erroneous
or damaged material has also been
carried out
personally,
making this book set a unique and a much improved offering.
It is provided here at a
particularly low cost, mainly to cover materials
plus
various associated overheads & fees. It is now presented in a convenient Adobe Reader
form (.pdf files) suitable for all computer systems.
This allows for all the really essential illustrations and
photos to be shown as opposed to the text only
versions often made available. The
Adobe reader itself is completely free to download from the Adobe web
site, although it usually comes pre-installed.
*
Please note that a number of rare old books
scanned will naturally show signs of age, such as an
occasional watermark or browning/fading and although
readable with minor adjustments to the options
provided with the software they may not be
in as pristine a condition as can be expected from
newer volumes. Also a little margin loss to a few
scans affects text on some of the more valuable,
fragile or rare books. Allowances should be made
accordingly.

DOWNLOADS
are in the usual 'zipped' (compressed)
form requiring unzipping upon receipt - a utility
for this is usually already installed on most
computers and simply requires double clicking on the
file to select the unzip command, otherwise it's
readily obtainable free on the internet. You will be
quickly sent a secure Link for downloading the
collection within just hours of your purchase,
depending on your time zone. Try it - it's quick,
reliable and convenient! |
