Because in the USA we have strict laws on copyrights.

Just because its not free doesn't mean it infringes on our freedoms. Americans have the pocketbooks to pay for literature. Its not a hardship in any means.

American authors might choose not to pursue registering copyrights in every country on the in the world, just in America.

Plus many of the literature pieces below are used in post-secondary institutions. And are owned by organizations, so they need royalties from these publications in order to further their work.

Have you seen the dysfunctional Hollywood crowd? It is quite a sad sight to see even for some of us 'unlucky to be born-here-Americans'.

Actually if you look closely only the 'Queen of the Dawn: A love tale of old Egypt.' is the title mentioned above that isn't available from the website.

look closer to this tag: (See the link above for earlier works featuring Peter Pan that are public domain in the US.)

And I have read about 5 of those titles above. I was a habitual reader as a kid, I got an award for checking out near 90% of the books in my grade school library. I read most of them cover to cover. Though I will say I am impartial to American literature, I have read volumes of british literature too. Sir Arthur Canon Doyle is my favorite author of all time.

Mind you most of these etext organization's are in the USA.

Shareen must I apologize for America's war of impertinence or are you willing to let that go? Oh dear God that pond isn't wide enough.

Its a highly requested love story/novel written by a westerner when Egyptology exploded in Europe about late 1800's. Europeans were obsessed with the country, and this book is the result.
