Hey All,
Today I sat down and scanned in the 51 missing pages from the reprint of Legendary Islands of the Atlantic. In recent years a company called Nabu Public Domain Reprints republished Legendary Islands of the Atlantic by William H. Babcock. However, they did a poor job with their scanning, leaving over fifty pages out of the final published product. They nevertheless sold this product to numerous people at Amazon.com.
I thought I'd do people who purchased the Nabu edition the service of publishing the missing pages online so they can finish reading this great book, which is a piece of history in itself.
You can purchase the incomplete Nabu version here. I then recommend supplementing it with the scanned pages that I have stored online here. Click the blue "Download Now" button on the bottom-left. At this point you will have to create a user account, which is free and will only take a second (well worth the few seconds). Then click the gray "Free Download" button on the bottom right, and it should begin downloading.
Unfortunately I was not able to make it a searchable PDF. My scanning software is very rudimentary. All I was able to do was scan each page into a pdf as an image. Oh well, at least you can have access to the material for free now. Enjoy!
P.S. For more information on this book please see my other post.
