Being the relative newbie that I am, I was not aware of the limitations indicated by words "[Print Replica]" after the Pearson titles in the posts of three or four of us in the last two or three days until last night. In case you are not aware, as I was not, you will not be able to deliver these books to the Kindle reader or the Kindle Cloud Reader or read the books on said devices. You will only, as far as I can determine (if I am wrong, I am sure someone will correct me lol), be able to read these books on Kindle for PC. I just wanted to give you a heads up. Maybe that won't be a big deal to you, but I thought that those of you who were not aware of it should know, not only in deciding whether or not to download or keep these Pearson titles, but also in deciding whether or not to download "[Print Replica]" titles that become available in the future.

It's not just "Print Replica" items that have device limitations. Keep your eye out for that note that says Available only on these devices with a drop-down arrow next to it that lists the applicable devices.

In the case of the Pearson titles, they seem to be limited to Fires and the apps for PC, Mac, iPAD and Android tablet.

I don't have a Kindle Fire so it was not given to me as an option for delivery/reading. The same goes for the apps for Mac, iPAD, and Android tablet. Thanks for the additional information and correction. I'm sure that others will appreciate the information that you've provided, too.

Keep in mind, too, that limitations change (and free prices often are very limited in time). I can now access the enhanced content of many of my books on the Kindle Fire, where they were originally iPad only.

These particular books are also not Windows 8, I believe, for now.

10 Buildings that Changed America. By Dan Protess and Geoffrey Baer. Was free at Barnes and Noble starting a couple of days ago, now free at Amazon. 4 1/2 stars out of five from 6 reviews at this moment. Digital list price $35.00; Print list price $35.00. Kindle $0.00. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=docs-os-doi_0

10 Buildings that Changed America tells the stories of ten influential works of architecture, the people who imagined them, and the way these landmarks ushered in innovative cultural shifts throughout our society. The book takes readers on a journey across the country and inside these groundbreaking works of art and engineering. The buildings featured are remarkable not only for aesthetic and structural reasons, but also because their creators instilled in them a sense of purpose and personality that became reflected in an overarching sense the American identity.

Edited by the staff of WTTW, the Chicago PBS affiliate that is the most-watched public television station in the country,
10 Buildings will be released alongside the national broadcast of an hour-long special by the same name. This television event will be promoted over digital media, on-ground events, and educational initiatives in schools, and the book will be a significant component to all of these elements.

10 Buildings retells the shocking, funny, and even sad stories of how these buildings came to be. It offers a peek inside the imaginations of ten daring architects who set out to change the way we live, work, and play. From American architectural stalwarts like Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright, to modern revolutionaries like Frank Gehry and Robert Venturi, this book examines the most prominent buildings designed by the most noteworthy architects of our time.

Also profiled are Americans less noted for their architectural acumen, but no less significant for their contributions to the field. Thomas Jefferson, a self-taught architect, is profiled for designing the iconic Virginia State Capitol. Taking its inspiration from ancient Rome, America's first major public building forged a philosophical link between America and the world's earliest democracies. Similarly, Henry Ford employed Albert Kahn to design a state-of-the-art, innovative factory for Ford's groundbreaking assembly line. Reinforced concrete supported massive, open rooms without any interior dividing walls, which yields the uninterrupted space that was essential for Ford's sprawling continuous production setups. What's more, Kahn considered the needs of workers by including astonishingly modern large windows and louvers for fresh air.

The design of each of these ten buildings was completely monumental and prodigious in its time because of the architect’s stylistic or functional innovations. Each was also highly influential, inspiring a generation or more of architects, who in turn made a lasting impact on the American landscape. We see the legacy of architects like Mies van der Rohe or H.H. Richardson all around us: in the homes where we live, the offices where we work, our public buildings, and our houses of worship. All have been shaped in one way or another by a handful of imaginative, audacious, and sometimes even arrogant individuals throughout history whose bold ideas have been copied far and wide.
10 Buildings is the ideal collection to detail the flashes of inspiration from these architects who dared to strike out on their own and design radical new types of buildings that permanently altered our environmental and cultural landscape.

I just noticed that the book in my post above was included in Koland's post on 3-23-14. I didn't check to see if the other two books in her post have also become free on Amazon. Maybe I can do that in a little while if no one else does it first.
