Review & Description
Processes have evolved from block printing to stencil to moveable type. Then from flat-bed printing to the rotary printing press. Printers have used Intaglio, Lithography, Offset and Screen-printing as well as Flexography and Thermo printing. With computer printing, the Dot matrix printer was king for years until the introduction of the Inkjet printer. Shortly after the Dye-sublimation printer for printing CMYK became popular for desktop printing. And finally the Digital press came into being in 1993.
But it was not until the introduction of E-Ink in 1997 that the production and distribution of eBooks exploded. The playing field has leveled to the point that almost everyone has a chance of expression in the literary arts and to distribute information worldwide. Enter the eBook.
However the free for all has had its caveats. Overwhelmingly there is a lack of understanding on how eBooks are made let alone how they are made for Kindle (Mobi) and how that process differs from eBooks for iPad or Nook (EPUB). Writers are unwillingly forced to write HTML code or trapped into thinking that all they are required to do is make a MS Word document, aggregate it into a EPUB file, then publish it.
In creating eBooks we found the ideas, perspectives, and methods to be as vast and perplexing as the Amazon jungle. Methods include templates, aggregators and creating system meta files from scratch. There are a gaggle of converters and a boatload of time and energy to be spent, but in general the system at large is a crapshoot. All booster and no payload. We have forums and Blogs that are also laced with confusion, opinion and speculation. All this is then fueled with frustration from those only wanting to write and get that writing into the public.
So writing a one size fits all format eBook is what this Book/eBook is all about. Using three applications and a template, its possible to create an eBook file that can be used for creating an eBook for Kindle, iPad, Nook and Sony eReaders.
The explanations in eBOOKING come across simple, logical and clear, and present a foundation for success as well as fun to use and experiment with.

Customer tags: kindle devices, ebook, e-reader, drm, kindle
Review & Description
* Starred Review Booklist. "The final entry in Randisi's Brooklyn trilogy is dark, brooding, and thoroughly compelling [with] . . . clever plotting and an engaging narrative voice. Randisi has written hundreds of crime stories and earned numerous awards. This is among his finest efforts." (Wes Lukowsky, Booklist, May 2011) Nick Delvecchio, the private-eye hero of No Exit from Brooklyn and The Dead of Brooklyn, returns in a fast-paced tale of family lies and broken friendships. A beautiful young woman from Nick's high school days is dead, and her family hires Nick to find out whether it was suicide or murder. No sooner has he tackled the case than tragedy strikes close to home and Nick learns that his deepest assumptions about who he is are lies--and that one man's blood-stained past is about to impose a brutal toll on the people Nick loves most. Here is the culminating Brooklyn novel by Robert J. Randisi, recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Private Eye Writers of America and author of more than five hundred published novels. Says Michael Connolly: "He's one of the best!" Advertising: Mystery Scene Magazine. Read more
