A Free Library in your own Home
Project Gutenberg is made up of a group of dedicated bibliophiles that create electronic versions of books currently in the public domain. These "eBooks" are legal to download, read, copy, and give to others. At Project Gutenberg, you will find all the classics from Aesop's "Tales" to Zola's "Nana". All are unabridged and free to download to your computer.Get involved

Encouragement
This website is in the process of being handed over and totally re-designed by one of the homeschool teens, which it is in dire need of having done.
