Nice to be back 11/03/2007

Yep, those are native Sony Reader files--resizable, with tables of contents, etc. Also have tags anyone can add--missing or duplicate might be good, but whatever you want--made the pdfs prettier, and, yes, those are in fact subject headings for each book from the Library of Congress.
Lot of this is still in beta, though. Right now, the programmers who built this site are working on other ones for me, but they will be back.
Curious about the URL--well, Munseys was a groundbreaking magazine started circa 1890, with its first editor one John Kendric Bangs. Mr. Bangs, of course, was noted for works like House-Boat on the Styx, Bangsian fantasies, if you will, wherein one communicated with the dead in unpredictable ways.
Or, it could be that Munseys merged with Argosy in 1928, and I get a kick out of pissing off Joel Frieman, owner of Argosy Communications... a firm which also holds rights to Black Mask.
More about another pulp rights-holder later.
