Unlike other Delphi Classics I've bought, this item does not allow an export function on Google Play. Therefore, it is unable to sync with my PC or e-reader. It is unusable to me. Google should have marked it with a warning to purchasers or corrected its mistake.

WARNING: This ebook can only be viewed in Google Books app or logged in to my Google account in a web browser. I can not use Adobe Digital Edtions to read this book. It must say eReader to use outside Google App/Web browser. Otherwise the book's quality and depth is exceptional. Nearly 20,000 e-pages.

Barnaby Rudge apparently finishes at chapter 40 before the riots! Please fix it! Love the original sketches and introductions.
