I don't ask ask you to fix the formatting, I ask you to show us how you would do "correct" HTML for books that are not yet in PG. And possibly show how to start a toolchain alternative to RST+epubmaker, possibly to install at a new DP site that I am currently testing.

Nor am I interested in tackling someone's James> Italian Mathematical Treatise. I don't have any Tom and Sally, nor mathematical treatises in any language (I had recently a classical mathematical paper in English by C.L.Dodgson, aka Lewis Carrol, but this has been done) but I can propose to you, for example, a play of James Joyce, or a collection of stories of Bram Stoker, or a few books of Stendhal, George Sand, Giovanni Pascoli, Gabriele D'Annunzio, and even a few Shakespeare (edited by T. Bowdler) and several other important books. All waiting for HTML to be posted. May at least ask you a list of your recent contributions to PG, so that we can learn from your examples? Carlo
