Here's an 1846 reference to those of us on the left side of the pond.

Wow. those 2 books look cool. "BUT"...she wined..I cant read them. For some reason I'm getting an overlay that looks sorta like this.  "Good for:
Web
Tablet / iPad eReader  Smartphone Features:Flowing text
Scanned pages
Help with devices & formats
Download EPUB, PDF - read eReader instructions

Learn more about books on Google Play"
 in a large block taking up most of of the text,I cant get it to go away and I cant see around it. Cry Is there a way to bring up the book in what they call "I Think" plain text? That's where it;'s typed out and not photographed.

Heidi you rock!Thank you!..now can you do the British one... pretty please.wheres the begging smiley. And your right they don't do good at it but for me it's actually readable as my dial up is usesly to slow for reading the photo copied pages.  I hope that annoying overlay isn't going to be a new "feature".
