Biblical Archaeology Review has about two dozen high-quality ebooks free for download. Despite the fact that they are offered by a Biblical archaeology journal, these books really run the gambit of Biblical subjects, although they probably are weighted somewhat in favor of Biblical archaeology. They are written on a layman's--not scholarly--level. Alas, all of them appear to be in the pdf format, which many of you do not like or cannot use.
