This can be installed from the Synaptic package manager, just look down the list for gutenbrowser and install it. It does not appear to have added an icon to the menu but you can start it from alt-F2 then type gutenbrowser and hit the run button. The first thing you have to do is go to Settings-Server Settings and point it at a Gutenburg mirror. I had some problems with the UK mirrors so I am now pointing at the project Gutenburg reading room at the bottom of the list. Once you have selected a server you can go to Library-update to collect the list of titles available, then just browse the list and it will download books on demand. Currently I am reading “A Manual or an Easy Method of Managing Bees” and contemplating the possibility of having Free Honey to go with my Free Eggs.
