How do you read your ebooks? Are you using a devise or downloading to your computer?
I have a collection of 30+ Charles Dickens books (whole works) that I got off of Amazon for free. Also, Some new books are also free if they are part of a series. Good idea considering that if it is a good read, most people will get hooked and pay $9.95 for each book in the series.

Some sites give you a choice of PDF and HTML. I can do either of those, of course.

Would anyone know where one could fine books on the subject of colonial-era technology?
A quick search on the
Internet Archive (for colonial technology in texts), returned one text:
Colonial Williamsburg.
Loading the page for that text shows that it's indexed on two subjects: "TECHNOLOGY" and "Building (construction) trade. Building materials. Building practice and procedure".
Maybe if you could narrow / redefine a search on the Internet Archive, you'd find more texts.

What do Kindle downloads look like in an ordinary web browser? You can only download Kindle books to a Kindle. It has it's own wireless called "whispernet". It automatically downloads with out connecting it to my computer.
