I’d love to be able to track down the others, but haven’t had much luck. Any pointers?

I, instead, used a combination of Stanza Desktop and Sigil to convert plain text books to ePub. First I imported the file into Stanza Desktop and exported it as an ePub, then I went into Sigil to format it.

Also, could you upload more of the Classics covers to the facebook group?

I tried Stanza (on the desktop) and the export to ePub option is ridiculously simple.

What I want to do now is get rid of Kindle and convert them to EPUB. Unfortunately destroying DRM is one heck of a process, if at least seemingly impossible for me to do.
