One of the problems is my own bandwidth; another is that one of my objectives is to encourage people to be aware of all that intheboatshed.net has to offer rather than share links to specific downloads that would by-pass the whole thing.

A compromise that might work could be to put each chapter in a pdf. I’ll think about it.

I would do it but I have dial-up and it would take me years to download all the pages. I suggest for you to use openoffice; you can make a word document with each page being a file, then save it as a .pdf. Then everyone would be able to download the whole book at once.
