Get free ebooks on different aspects of ancient history by signing up for an account at Ancient Origins magazine's website. There are in fact three different books, one to mark each year that the magazine has been in business.

These are the titles of the three books:
Unravelling the Mysteries of Ancient Places.
Unraveling the Mysteries of Ancient Artifacts.
Unraveling Ancient Mysteries.
.

You're not limited to the pdf format with this promotion. You will have your choice of all three flavors--pdf, mobi, and ePub. You can even get all three of them if you want to.

Each book is actually a compilation of articles from different issues of the magazine, which I'm assuming from the year just prior to when the book was published. The layout, formatting, and photos/graphics are all respectable enough. I've only had a chance to glance in one or two of the books, so I can't really speak to the quality of the writing. The fact that one of Harvard University Press' subsidiaries, Belknap Press, publishes some of the magazine's other books probably says a lot about them, too.

The choice of accounts that you're required to sign up for is for the newsletter, the website, or both. I suggest that you start out by going to the spot in the upper righthand corner of the Ancient Origins magazine's website that says "3 Free Books," clicking on it, and then following the prompts to sign up and get the freebies.

Oh yeah, I read somewhere that people who have an account with the magazine also get one free ebook each month. That should be nice.
