I deleted the horrid FOSS Browser and next tried the F-Droid Privacy
Browser:

<https://fdroid.gitlab.io/jekyll-fdroid/packages/com.stoutner.privacybrowser.standard/>
 <https://f-droid.org/repo/com.stoutner.privacybrowser.standard_81.apk>
 Name: com.stoutner.privacybrowser.standard_81.apk

Drat. When I went to ZArchiver and tapped on the index.html file, it opened
up 
but when I tapped on one of the sub links, it said "webpage not available".

The webpage at 
content://ru.zdevs.sarchiver.external/storage/emulated/0/0000/book/gages/2.html 
could not be loaded because: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

So I opened Privacy Browser and tapped the browser "Browse" button which
allowed me to find the file which its own URL became, cryptically, 

content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/primary%3A0000%2Fbook%2Fname%2Findex.html
That opened the top level of the index.html page.

When I clicked on a lower-level link, it asked me to "open with" but the
options provided did not include a browser. 
 Muntashirakon App Manager interpreter, Google (search), Messages, Messages
The Muntashirakon App Manager interceptor shows
 Action = android.intent.action.VIEW
 Data =
content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/pages/2.html

Yikes. What's happening? This isn't a real file-system path at all.
It's an SAF document URI.
