You'd be surprised. I've noticed a number of older history books (1970s) coming up in the Venture Press lists so it's worth keeping an eye on Amazon (especially Amazon.co.uk). What we don't know is where the OP is based, so it's difficult to suggest specific sources given geo-restrictions on ebooks. I'm assuming it's somewhere in the English-speaking world given that the OP's written English is good but equally it could be that the OP has excellent English skills.
Of course, older academic works may well not be available in ebook, but there are some university presses that run regular give-aways - there's one of the Danish universities (often in English) which frequently appears in the Non-Fiction bargains thread, and there's been some give-aways from the University of Chicago Press.
