I don't know, specificlly, what book and author you've
been asking about.

If it's the Rev. A.J. O'Reilly, and the book is
Alvira, anybody can download it, member or not, since
it's in the public domain. And I assume this is true
of all other public domain books on bookshare.

Just for fun, I put the title into google rather than
going directly through bookshare. Actually, since I'm
not a member, I could have done it that way. I opened
the bookshare site that had the book and downloaded
the book. It's now sitting on my desktop, though,
unless you want me to send it to you, smile--I'll
trash it, since I don't plan to read it.  smile
