The Mystery of the Yellow Room is a locked-room mystery by Gaston Leroux. The book is in the public domain.
Gessert Books is an ongoing, umbrella project that aims to create deluxe ebook editions of public domain works. There ought to be a focus on both style and technique; where style is reflected through art direction and design, and technique is reflected through thoughtful coding.
This yellowroom repository is a home for my work in building an ebook edition of The Mystery of the Yellow Room. It's a document of the technical process I used to arrive at the finished ebook. Any sort of feedback is welcome, because the ultimate aim is to build a great book. Book design is something you're never really done learning, so I'm always curious about better ways to accomplish things.
For insights on the style end, I've got a [public Evernote notebook] (https://www.evernote.com/pub/phillipgessert/themysteryoftheyellowroom) available for viewing.
I'm also on @phillipgessert on Twitter, and post updates there from time to time.
