This book is published by Magisterium Press, a company that I didn't recognize. So, I decided to see what else that they might have for free (when it comes to free ebooks, yes, I'm greedy. ha). Well, when I did a search for the publisher on Amazon, sorted by price low to high, I found 77 other freebies from this company!

Of course, you shouldn't expect to find any books with a current copyright, they're all books in the public domain. However, you might find some advantage or another about these over other copies of the books that you can find on the Internet. FYI--all of the ebooks that I spot-checked had clickable TOCs.

I take it that Magisterium is run by someone of the Roman Catholic faith because by far the great majority of the ebooks are about Roman Catholicism in one way or another. However, I noticed that they also have Foxe's Book of Martyrs, which is a book that is extremely critical of the Roman Catholic Church (the author, John Foxe, relates many instances where he says Roman Catholics inflicted suffering upon Protestants). Strange.

Anyway, if you're interested in seeing what's available, here's a link to the selection, sorted by price low to high.
