Greg,

thanks for this!

for some personal tastes/usage cases, this, using pandoc's `-t`
option, might be minor-ly simpler:

----
man --local-file --pager 'less -ir' \
    <(pandoc --standalone -t man \
             2015.31233.Arab-Geographers-Knowledge-Of-Southern-India.epub) | less
----
and, this deserves to be somewhere like fortune: "I already know and
love less.".  :)  maybe "fortune-mod-fles-pleh"?  :)
cheers, Greg
