+				<p><strong><a href="eric-steven-raymond_the-art-of-unix-programming.epub">Click here to download The Art of Unix Programming in epub format!</a></strong></p>
+
+				<p><cite>The Art of Unix Programming</cite> is
+				<a href="http://www.catb.org/esr/writings/taoup/html/">available online</a>
+				from the author himself as a set of HTML pages. I was interested in
+				reading it, but navigating that website on a phone is a bit of a pain,
+				so I decided to see if I could convert it to a more convenient epub
+				format.</p>
+
+				<p>This was created using the tooling provided by
+				<a href="https://standardebooks.org">Standard Ebooks</a>.
+				I also tried to follow their
+				<a href="https://standardebooks.org/contribute/producing-an-ebook-step-by-step">production guide</a>,
+				but admittedly got lazy. To be clear, this conversion is certainly not
+				up to Standard Ebooks' level of quality, but it's nice enough that I
+				thought I would share it anyway. In particular, the book's numerous
+				footnotes have been redone to play nicely in an epub.</p>
