Terrific Internet Resource Found
Project Gutenberg Consortium Center is an online library of e-books that are available at no charge and are copyright-free. So far, 75,000 titles have been uploaded. A wide variety of books are offered.
Jim discovered this link while “surfing” last night, and it certainly is a treasure trove of good information. The book that I have perused so far, and printed for my own use, is entitled, Beeton’s Book of Needlework, (London: Ward, Lock, and Tyler, 1870). I am charmed by all of its detailed information about tatting, embroidery, and lacemaking.
I hope that you enjoy this site as much as I do (and will) in the future.
