| What is an E-book? |
E-book simply means "electronic book", the wave of the future. In the case of A Summer Odyssey, the E-book is an electronic file which you can purchase and download within minutes, to read on your laptop or desktop
computer. It is the complete book, starting with the front and
back covers, and as you scroll down you will find the overview map
of the route, then each of the 256 pages of the book, complete with more
than 100 color photos to accompany the text. It's the whole story of Jim and Simon's hike, in digital form. It's yours to read and enjoy for as long as you like. Adjusts with a mouse click to large print.
