Free and Bargain Non-Fiction in April 2014
A thread for April.
We point out free and bargain Non-Fiction titles to each other. Please don't post any self-published books*, and please do a search before posting to avoid duplicates. In case no retailer is specifically mentioned in a post, it is safe to assume it's for Amazon US. Be aware that many freebies are only free for a day, so grab them fast! *Unless you have read them yourself, think they are excellent, and you're not connected to the author in any way. ----------------------------------------------- three free from B&N (two are repeats): http://www.barnesandnoble.com/s?stor...=agate&prc=0-0 |

Redemption: The Myth of Pet Overpopulation & the No Kill Revolution in America. By Nathan Winograd. Print list price $9.95; Digital list price $3.99. Kindle price $0.00. Four and 1/2 stars out of 5 from 93 customer reviews at the current time, and heavily awarded. http://www.amazon.com/Redemption-Myt...ion+in+America
Redemption is the story of animal sheltering in the United States, a movement that was born of compassion and then lost its way. It is the story of the 'No Kill' movement, which says we can and must stop the killing. But most of all, it is a story about believing in the community and trusting in the power of compassion. |

A quick browse indicates it is a very attractive read and has gone straight to the top of my "to read" pile; quite an accomplishment considering that pile is over 2,000 books high :-). Although a PDF it displays just fine on my reader. John |

Anyone who falls for this nonsense clearly has swallowed the myth that the Western Allies defeated Germany, rather than the Soviets who shouldered the lion's share of the killing and dying and too often fail to receive the credit that they were due.
