PS: Does anyone know how to build an epub from it?

This looks like a source for a leanpub.com book (Book.txt gives it away, and the fact that this is all in a manuscript folder). I don’t think they have a command line tool to build epubs, but you should be able to get an epub from their web site if the author published it there
calibre [1] is also a pretty good open source tool, however there is a bit of work involved to convert html pages into epub.

You can use pandoc if you don't mind a little bit of manual work:
