From the Oregon Trail to Jack London's tales of the Alaskan frontier, this CD, intended for use with Windows PCs, contains 556 books, works of fiction and history dealing with the American West, in plain text format, and organized for easy access. You can read these books with your browser or any word processor.
For other CDs of ours (nearly 200 different titles) check my eBay store (No shipping charge for additional CDs purchased the same day.)

What do we mean by "plain text books"? Many people ask that question --
Plain text (also known as ASCII) is the simplest form of text prepared for use on a computer -- without any of the formatting that is usually specific to a specific program.
Using a plain text book is the same as reading any plain text file on your computer. You can open a plain text document with your Web browser or with a word processor like Word. Then you can use the power of that specific application to modify how the text appears to suit your individual preferences.
Why read a book on a computer?
1) It's easy to curl up with a laptop (just a matter of habit).
2) You can set the type whatever size you want, so there's less eye strain than with a paper book (unless you are set up with extraordinary glare conditions). I need to use reading glasses to read a paper book, but don't to read one on my computer.
3) I actually find that I read about 50% faster this way.
4) If you travel long distances or frequently, it's a lot easier to take along a few CDs than boxes full of printed books.
All in all, it's a matter of personal taste and habit. If you think this might be for you, give it a try.
