Verso's advertising copy says that you can get "a book with an ebook." That might be misleading to some people--you don't have to buy the paper-based book in order to get the free ebook. There will be a box, giving the book's title, with two tabs at the top. The default tab is labelled "book." The other tab is labelled "ebook." Select it if the (free) ebook is the only thing that you want. If you only get the freebie, checkout is a breeze!
Verso is, by its own self-description, a "radical press." It is leftist. I don't know anything about this book or its author. I don't know what, if anything, will be in the book that reflects a radical leftist view. I am not making any kind of statement about my personal political views, only giving information. I would make the same kind of statement if I knew the publisher was radical right wing.
Great post, especially from one who has just become a poster! I will try to remember to check my messages from Verso, the remainder of the month, to catch the rest of their weekly freebies.

Thanks! Verso will be giving away an ebook every 3 days for the remainder of the month, as part of this 'back to school' promotion. Good that you clarify how to get just the free ebook, it is indeed not immediately apparent.
