Free Fishing Books on Kindle
« on: October 11, 2013, 11:18:39 AM »

Kindle is having one of their giveaways. There are three flyfishing books on offer today. The Compleat Angler by Izaak Walton, and two by Paul Duffield. 5 tips Every Beginner to Fly Fishing Needs to Know and (more interesting to me anyway) Fresh Water Fish of the USA, an Illustrated Guide. Just go to the kindle store and enter Paul Duffield (and man that guy has written a lot of books on fish and insects). Act now, these deals don't last long.

Me Too!!!  and thanks too.   :D
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

Yep. Just google kindle and download a free app. The cool thing is, if you get a tablet, it doesn't matter which brand (I use a google nexus) it mirrors all the books in your library, right down to the last page you were on. It would probably work for a smart phone using Android, but I don't know. Kindle has a ton of stuff free, and a lot more for under five bucks, just not the current best sellers.. If you buy a tablet, I'd recommend the Nexus over the Kindle products as the kindle stuff is slaved to Amazon and the nexus lets you go wherever you want. But they're basically the same machine for the same price.

I just enter a specific topic along with "free" and it shows a listing of stuff that they have for free downloads.
Others may do it different.

That's the way I usually do it. Today I just entered "Free Books". There were about a hundred. Everything from soft core vampire porn to quinoa diet books to trapping and survival guides. I picked up Moby Dick (Figure I might finally read the the thing beyond the classic comic), Grimm's Fairy Tales in the original as I have young cousins to scare the crap out of, and a few mystery thriller novels, the autobiography of Ben Franklin, the Bible ESV (not my favored translation, but it will do) and the fishing books. Free for nada. You can't beat it with a stick.

I got Grimm's a while back too.......   ;D



Side note:
I also use the ESV translation since it is currently the most literal translation from the original Hebrew and Greek texts. It seems to flow just right between the old King James (which I like) and the translations lie the NIV, which seems more like paraphrasing.
LOGOS is a free app also that has it in red letter edition.



Anyhooo lots o' free stuff..... and I like free!!!!  :D  :D  :D

Its not just the free stuff, but the cheap stuff. Lots of good authors who aren't famous are selling their work for less than three bucks so they get noticed. And the classics are cheap too. I'm reading TR's account of his African Safari, African Game Trails,  (I think $4) and its a great book. I really like Kindle. I've probably got fifty books on everything from gun smithing to fly fishing, sci-fi and mystery novels, to cooking and falconry. All for discount prices or free. You can't beat it.

PS In re our previous conversation. I'm more of an NSRV guy, but I guess we had this discussion in another thread, and at the end of the day a Bible is a Bible  and I think they ought to be free to anyone who wants one. Lord knows how much money we'd save if more folks read them. I'll check out Logos. I like the red letter editions as that seems to sort out our disagreement over what is man's inspired and authorized account of events and what is God's word.
