I don't have a Kindle reader so I can't help. When I downloaded as a Kindle file I got this; Does "mobi" look like a Kindle type file? http://ia700409.us.archive.org/epub/index.php?id=historicalsketch00rushrich&dir=/5/items/historicalsketch00rushrich&doc=historicalsketch00rushrich&type=mobi I do have a program thats sposed to read Kindle files on my PC but it didn't seem to work on that download either. But then I haven't tried to use it before now. I'm pretty sure the FULL TEXT will download quickly. It did for me
