Project Gutenberg  
An excellent source of on-line books is Project Gutenberg at:  
   http://gutenberg.net/  
 
These books are in plain text format, perfect for reading with ReadPlease.  
 
What is Project Gutenberg?  
Project Gutenberg is the brainchild of Michael Hart, who in 1971 decided that it would be a really good idea if lots of famous and important texts were freely available to everyone in the world. Since then, he has been joined by hundreds of volunteers who share his vision. Now, almost thirty years later, Project Gutenberg publishes an average of one etext every day!  
 
Can I download and read your books?  
Yes. That's what Project Gutenberg is all about--making texts available free to everyone!
