Translations Available On This Site

This is a manually compiled index of the material available for download from this site.  The post is linked to, in which they were placed online.  The date of that post follows; then a direct link to the PDF and the Word document for each, where possible.  Except where the author is indicated, all of this material is public domain.

The list is not complete, I am sure.  Some translations were placed elsewhere, before this blog began.  I may try and hunt some of these down.
