The University of Chicago Press is giving away a free e-book every month. The selection for August is “We’ll Always Have Paris: American Tourists in France since 1930″ by Harvey Levenstein (originally published in 2004).
If you’re interested in receiving a copy of this e-book, visit the University of Chicago Press website, enter your e-mail address in the space provided, and click “Get e-book.”
You will receive an email confirmation with a link to download your free e-book, as well as a link to Adobe’s Digital Editions software, used to display the book.
We gave this offer a twirl and discovered the following: Adobe Digital Editions software is a bit of a space hog and it’s not as widely used as we expected. It allowed us to read “We’ll Always Have Paris” on our computer. If we had a Barnes & Noble Nook we could use it on that device (and there are other supported eBook devices you can use it on too, but we weren’t familiar with most of them). The software allowed us to “display” the book, not download it as a PDF. On the plus side, once you install the software, you can download additional books for free from Adobe Digital Editions Library.
