CAUTION folks -- read carefully when you get the download link. This is an EITHER / OR choice. You only get to download ONE of the two. The book of maps and charts OR the reading plan.
Contrary to GtrsRGr8's wording, the books of maps was listed first for me. So read it before you click.  This is the download link that they mail you, after you have already signed up.
[ Maybe I could have gone back and asked for the other download also, but each signup appears to be for ONE pdf file. ] |
Genuine thanks for advising me on the number of different pdf's that a person could receive. I've posted an update to my initial message, to let people know.
I know that this may sound like I'm making excuses, but the text on
the webpage that made the offer could be interpreted a couple of different ways. Let me quote: ". . . . offer you a free download of the Orthodox Study Bible reading plan
and a free download of Nelson's Complete Book of Bible Maps and Charts" (emphasis mine, G.). I took that to mean that you could get both; however, it must have meant that they were making the two available, and the person would get to pick which one that he/she wanted.
Regarding the second (and I
know that I've got the order right this time. ha) issue that you pointed out . . . . I think that you were saying that the order of the pdf's was reversed from what I said? The order may have been reversed in the email message from Nelson--I've forgotten now. But I was referring to the order that was given on
the webpage that made the offer. At the time that I posted the offer I had not opened my email message from Nelson to know what the order was there.
Let me mention something else that I discovered. It's not really an error, but I want to let everyone know about it, because if I had known it when I was making my initial post, I would have advised everyone of it. When I opened the pdf of the books and charts ebook, I noticed that it is pretty heavily watermarked on, it looks like, every page. That's not much of an issue if you are just reading it for your own benefit, but it would be an issue if you copied it (which might not be legal anyway) to use if for some other purposes.
A couple of years ago, I found a webpage in which all of the charts and maps of this book were separately downloadable, for free. There were no watermarks on them. I posted the information on Mobileread, and when I get through with this message I will try to find the post. I don't remember the details very clearly. I'll let you know what I find out.
