      The Harvard Classics are available through Project Gutenberg, one of the oldest sources of e-books (if not the oldest!) so these e-books have always been free, & will remain free, until such time the world is taken over by a dictator who believes the world should get rid of the written word!!

    If it's recommended to read 15 minutes a day, how long would it take to get through the entire collection and thus attain a "liberal education"?
