Kasama’s first e-books! Use ‘em! Test ‘em! Share ‘em!
Posted by Mike E on January 17, 2012
Our project is starting to produce its collections as e-books — in formats suitable for both Amazon’s Kindle and B&N’s Nook. (Thanks to Enzo for this great work of design and conversion.)
Here are our first two Kasama e-books. More to come.
In addition, volunteer to help expand these offerings:
- Help us test these files — where do they work? Where don’t they work?
- Help us by writing clear instructions for downloading. (Send them in, we will post them for readers on a new e-reader page)
- Help us get them posted on as many e-book resources as possible.
- Help get our many other writings and pamphlets converted to e-reader formats.
- Help us develop a list of online communist ebook resources (just post links in this thread).
Let us know if you volunteer for any of these tasks.

Love it. Great idea. Kasama on my favorite new commodity…the e-book reader. Is 9 Letters going to be made available as well?

Should I post suggested corrections here?
I’d also be willing to help with the conversion process if someone would be willing to tell me how you’d like it done. I have Calibre on my pc. It doesn’t always do a good job of converting pdf files, but maybe the simpler layout of these pamphlets helps in that process?
