Guns, Germs, and Steel — LuaLaTeX source & images

This is the LaTeX source code for the book “Guns, Germs, and Steel” by prof. Jared M. Diamond (#7914FC64AECCB9C47505E5C55062FB7C in the catalog), with some (optional) end notes by me, C.T. Zen. If you have the program ‘lualatex’ or ‘xelatex’ properly installed on your system, along with all the extra packages used by this source code (see the ‘\usepackage’ directives in ‘preamble.tex’), you can build this code to obtain a PDF book by running ‘lualatex ggs’ or ‘xelatex ggs’ in the ‘ggs’ directory. You'll probably have to run it two or three times in a row to get the cross-references right. Unfortunately, no LaTeX implementations except LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX are currently supported. The latter one works faster, but may occasionally eat the last word in the first line of a chapter (set in small caps using the ‘magaz’ package); therefore, I recommend LuaLaTeX.
This particular version works best with Linux Libertine as the main font. The fonts can be changed, but you'll need to take care of some Greek and Cherokee characters in Chapter 12 (I used the FreeSerif font), and possibly some Cyrillic and IPA characters in the end notes, if you'd like to keep those (Libertine already supports both).
You are strongly encouraged to correct any technical problems and obvious typos you find in this text. The bulk of the text was obtained from and OCR'ed book and automagically edited by sed scripts; there was some (hurried) proofreading and manual corrections, but problems are to be expected.
