Greetings, I read an earlier draft of both EI2 and EI3. This present draft of EI2 is much better than the earlier one. I've also read Charles Adams' garbled translation of all four volumes, as well as the orginal French. There are still a few minor problems with this version, but overall yours is far, far superior to Charles Adams' attempt. You really should do all four volumes and find a publisher. I am certain the Amis Corbin Society and a few folks, like Tom Cheetham and co., would go out of their way to help you out.
