    Bingo. Very busy. Doing it all myself makes it a slow process, believe me between work, radio, and just keeping up to date on the news so my blog remains viable.

    I've always wondered what the 1920's and 1930's were like, but I never wanted to see it from the German perspective.....

    John, when I attempt to download the file, it seems to want to install another program (VLC player). Is there a simple way just to download the .pdf file by itself. I must be doing something wrong. Enjoyed the book and thanks for your work.

    I had the same problem. It wanted to install programs on my computer. Since I didn't know what they were, I stopped the download, and uninstalled those programs.

    If you don't have the Adobe Reader set as your default PDF reader, your computer will seek an alternative program or plug in (in the case of Firefox) to open it. VLC is a very good universal media player and I have used it in the past. It is not part of my PDF file as it was saved from Adobe.

    I was having the same problem.

    When you hit the link on John's site it takes you to a JumboFiles page. Here's where I kept getting confused...at the bottom of the page there is a big blue "DOWNLOAD" button with a countdown timer next to it. DON't click on that one---it starts the whole VLC thing.

    Just above it is a small gray download button which immediately opened the file in Adobe Reader.

    Worked for me anyway.

    It left me a nasty thing called "searchqu.com/406". I've run malware scans all day, and can't get rid of it.

    ^^^^ THIS. I have no idea what that other stuff is. I know the file is 100% clean....Jumbo will install a "player" if you don't click on the link to the file because it assumes you need a player.
