Eyeflash - the Land of Earth_Oz

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

You (and other people) might like to know that a lot of the books are
available over the net from Project Gutenberg.  Go to

  http://promo.net/pg/query.html

and enter Baum in the author box.  This turned me up the following (plus
other non-Oz books).  They're in reverse alphabetic order --- Wonderful
Wizard came last, so I put it first without thinking until after.

Wonderful Wizard of Oz, The
Tin Woodman of Oz, The
Tik-Tok of OzBaum
Scarecrow of Oz, The
Road to Oz
Rinkitink In OzBaum
Patchwork Girl of Oz, The
Ozma of Oz
Marvelous Land of Oz, The
Magic of Oz, The
Lost Princess of Oz, The
Glinda of Oz
Emerald City of Oz, The
Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz
