At the present time, Palatine Press has 14 free Kindle books ( https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_pg_1...qid=1489867401). Again, these all relate in some way to ancient Rome.
I'm going to go ahead and list them:
Mommsen, Theodor - The History of Rome Book 1: The Period Anterior to the Abolition of the Monarchy.
Ferrero, Guglielmo - The Women of the Caesars.
Tenney, Frank - Roman Imperialism.
Dodge, Theodore - Great Captains: Hannibal.
(Flavius) Josephus - Autobiography of Josephus.
Suetonius - Lives of the Grammarians.
Orr, Lyndon - Famous Affinities of History: The Romance of Devotion, All Volumes.
Sismondi, J.C.L. de - History and Fall of the Roman Empire: Volume 1.
Dillaway, Charles - Roman Antiquities and Ancient Mythology.
Plutarch - Parallel Lives: Comparison of Sertorius with Eumenes.
Plutarch - Parallel Lives: Comparison of Aristides and Cato.
Plutarch - Parallel Lives: Comparison of Dion and Brutus.
Plutarch - Parallel Lives: Comparison of Lysander with Sylla.
Bryan, William Jennings - The World's Famous Orations: Volume II, Rome (218 B.C. - 84 A.D.).

I suspect that the free selection changes from time to time. I'm going to set a bookmark and try to monitor the above webpage for different books that they might offer free in the future. |
Well, someone that I know very well (yours truly) dragged their feet and missed out on most of the above
freebies. That's the bad news.
The good news is that Palatine Press has added a half a dozen or so "new"
free Kindle books.
