I created the base but there is a lot of work, especially because each volume has an index, which would be nice to have it working. cf. http://wikisource.org/wiki/Day_to_Day_with_Gandhi
This raises an interesting issue. How to handle indexes. Typically these make references to specific page numbers in paper books, but we usually ignore the original pagination when we upload a book. Maybe an index could have the page numbers stripped out and link to some kind of search function. As Spock would say, "Fascinating!"
There are other features which are much needed for Wikisource. One is footnote. There are also plenty of foonotes in this book, and I don't know what to do with them.
