A big thanks to all of you. I don't know which of the links provided, but I came upon a page where I could download and or save all 12 books, but it was in Thai. Since I didn't want to screw up the downloads I ask my wife to take care of it for me. I can screw up any computer operation in English - I don't need to try it in Thai. Anyway we have all 12 books downloaded to the computer and my wife is working on printing them out. I ask her how much of a newspaper would I be able to read after studying these books. She said all of it. Sounds good to me. At present I struggle to read a small amount of Thai. Thanks again, Irish
