Dear Suresh, I am also working in Classification of books.
First of all I collect a meta-data of my e-books, after collecting a meta-data than I start my second level to pre-process an e-book. In pre-processing, I collect information regarding *books title, chapter titles sections, subsection paragraph, sub-paragraph and Bold fonts* etc. and remove all other formatted style than i got a result.
