Some file of the book 

Washington's Crossing 

may be corrupted.  I can't open the book either using Kurzweil 1000. I 
will signal this to Claire.

Thanks, Dave!  At least I'm not losing my mind completely <smile>. 
As a new volunteer should I report this to a Bookshare staff member or 
what?

I really appreciate your time and your help.

Thanks!

Well I tried to open it with both Victor Reader Soft and the Book 
Wizard Reader, and no go.  It downloads ok, unpacks ok, but it won't 
load.  The files all have content, so they're not just empty 
files.  The html copy however, loads fine in Internet Explorer.
