For e-readers you should use epub or similar format built specifically for them for the output. For actually rewriting Latex or other format that uses a make file is probably a good choice since it can be used to output to various formats (html, pdf of different sizes, epub, mobi, chm, man pages, etc.) This way people can download it and use it offline in various ways. In terms of rights, no because as it has not been 70 years since he has passed. Now, if he has transferred his copyright or changed it himself to be public domain then yes. Otherwise you would have to wait until after the year 2052 legally when it goes into public domain.

When I do that in an incognito window the first 23 hits are me. Of them, about half are to web pages that have a means to email me. It seems to me that if you really wanted to contact me it isn't really that hard.
