Btw, if anyone learning Italian still doesn't know about this website with parallel
Italian-English texts, they should take a look.

Most are short stories or book chapters, but there are even whole books like Tom Sawyer.
All perfectly legal.

FYI, I was curious about how these documents were formatted so I asked. Here is his

So all this was done manually (no sentence aligners, etc.). I've managed to make 3
parallel texts using alignment software, and it was still a lot of work and none of them
as nice as these, so I can't imagine how much work he put into this.
