The work of von Hefele in assembling the materials regarding the history of Christian councils is significant. While his opinions and conclusions may be subject to bias, I have yet to hear any criticism that he falsified the source materials included in his work. With that in mind, I present the following downloadable editions of his work in English translation (translation from the German original by William R. Clark):
Second Edition, Revised (1872)
Volume 1 (second copy)
(1876)
Volume 2 (Second Copy)
Second Edition, Revised (1883)
Volume 1
(1883)
Volume 3 (Second Copy)
Second Edition, Revised (1894)
Volume 1 (Second Copy)
(1895)
Volume 4 (Second Copy)
(1896)
Volume 2
Volume 5 (Second Copy)

Wow, what a resource.
I'm a guy who likes real books, but things like this may persuade me to get a Sony Reader or something like that.
(By the way, if anyone has any experience with book readers and archive.org, I'd be interested in hearing it.)
Alexander: I wasn't offended by your comment, in fact I got a chuckle out of it. I just wanted to avoid confusion from folks who come here at a later date when the other issue you mentioned is long forgotten. Thanks for your comment.
LOL - and thanks.
