There's no way I can ever finish this...

Deplorable Layout

While the content of this ebook is without compare and deserving of five stars on its own merit, the layout is utterly deplorable. Lacking the scrolling option in such an enormous tome is bad enough, but far worse is the primitively constructed table of contents. One must scroll interminably through it (Kindle's table of contents always features - thankfully! - a scroll function) to find what one is looking for. Even a college kid would know enough to first make a primary list of each and every Father, using hyperlinks to go to their respective sections, where their works would then be itemized in a separate table of contents for each of those sections alone.
I believe it would greatly help if Amazon laid out some hard and fast rules for ebook developers to comply with before allowing them to sell on the website, i.e. required scrolling function, required spell checking of ebooks prior to posting on the site (an appalling number of publishers obviously don't bother spell checking as their ebooks are replete with often horrendous spelling mistakes), a properly formatted table of contents, etc.

I read it for reference for a study on one of the epistles and it really was more difficult than necessary and the search mechanism wasn’t helpful.

Too many pages to read.
