Laravel 3.x Docs

Old is Gold: eBook version of Laravel 3.x documentation for those who need it still as I do :-)

About the Book

Even though entire Laravel community moved to Laravel 4.x, as an early adopter of Laravel for production use, I still have to maintain large code base built on top of Laravel 3. As I need a readable reference of the 3.x documentation often, I made one from the official documentation included with 3.x source, and here it is for you all who need it.
