The books on CD's are actual scanned images of each page from the original book. The images are saved as Adobe Acrobat PDF files and requires Acrobat Reader to view the pages. Adobe Acrobat version 6 is supplied on each CD free of charge to install on your computer if needed. The book is one file so that you only have to load the book once from the CD to read through the pages. There is no need to refer back and forth to the CD to view the next page. Each page is printable on your printer or you can print off the whole book. To view the pages simply use a forward or reverse button to advance the pages. You can zoom in and out on each page to improve your reading.
All of these old books are no longer in print and are rare to find even in poor shape. The history books have been found to sell on Ebay for an average price of $100.00 or more. The city directories average $15-$50 in variable condition. Having these books on CD will save the worry of handling old books and preserving their integrity. They also save space in your home library and the CD last for a long time if handle with some care.
I have listed these books on Ebay for the above noted starting price in bidding. I will sell them for the same above price outside of Ebay. Shipping and handling for each CD is $4.00 or $5.00 for two or more CD's to the same purchaser.
