Not offered: what its record states (its uploader's public-domain mark, or a licence not shown to be its rights holder's) leaves its US term to decide, and it is dated 1968; under US law a work of that year is free only on facts the site does not hold for it (its US renewal records, or its own country's term on 1 January 1996 for a work published abroad), and otherwise its US term runs to the end of 2063.

Made from
Witchfinder General, Ronald Bassett's novel of 1966: protected in the United States, as it was first published in 1966, and the renewal of a work of 1964 to 1977 was automatic (17 U.S.C. §304(a)(2)(B)), so it is protected in the United States until the end of 2061.
