Free Google books?

[khalleron]

Count me as a Google Book lover, too. I find them a lot more readable than the ones at the Internet Archive, that's for sure. I can usually read around the OCR errors - I've bought books that were just as bad, or worse. For free, I'm certainly not going to grumble.

It's a priceless resource for historical research - being able to read what people wrote about their lives and their issues during the actual period is worth 100 times what any regurgitated historical analysis is.

It's also been a big help in my genealogical research.
