What are ebooks?
eBooks are digital files that you can read on your desktop or laptop computer, or on a portable reading device (Rocket reader, Palm or PC-type handheld). Anyone with a browser can read an HTML file.
You can also print out Belgrave House Word or Rich Text Format ebooks, which are formatted in a double column, landscape style, to simulate a paper book.
Belgrave House ebooks are available in nine formats: PDF, LIT (Microsoft Reader), PRC (Mobipocket), PDB (Palm), HTML zip, Word, Rich Text Format, RB (Rocket and ebookwise), and KML (Hiebook).
If you're feeling adventurous, try this:
Click this link for the Belgrave House Sampler. When the file appears, click the Save As choice on the File menu. Choose to Save as sampler.htm on your desktop, or in any folder of your choice. This sampler includes the first chapter of each of Belgrave House's [non-Regency] ebooks. Just click on the file to open it, and there's your first ebook! You can save the Regency Sampler the same way.
When you order our ebooks, we attach them to an email in the format you request. Give it a try, and we'll offer any assistance you need. Good luck!
