There was some chatter on The Corner today about Project Gutenberg and carrying e-books with you. It prompted me to contact the ever pleasant Peter Robinson.
Well, when you get posted on The Corner you’ll probably blog it, too.
I really do find it handy to have a library on my hip. I’ve read a lot, from The Importance of Being Earnest to (a lot of) Wealth of Nations in my odd free time. Since Gutenberg only has public domain works, they tend to be older. That’s a good thing, as I maintain that the English language reached its zenith in the late 19th century. So dig in and read all the Chesterton you can.
You can even read the books right on the web, assuming you really want to sit that long at your browser.
