I didn’t realize that there were “E books”. I got an email from a group that I subscribe to and they offered me this free ebook. I “saved the target” and I was surprised to see that it was actually a 196 page book! It opened quite fast with the adobe7.0 reader but I’m not sure I would want to read an entire book online.
Anyways, it’s free for those that want to save the $10 at a bookstore.
Anyone else know of any free online book sites?

Think and Grow Rich has had so many copies printed that book stores are almost willing to pay to have you take them away.

You know of any other free ebook sites?

I just ran a google search with 'free ebook' as the seach topic and quit looking after the first half of the page when I saw the '...of 50,000' of available sites.
be so none but those

I'll be long dead before I could finish checking out those 50,000 sites, not the way I want to grow rich.
Some of those old books are a real good read.
Peale's classic 'Power of Positive Thinking' has some great stuff in it.
That chapter on Rockerfeller is really something else.

I have a better solution, you go through all those books and give us a summary. Then you collect 10% on every dollar that we make and you'll be rich.
Razzman, which site is that book on.
I wouldn't mind downloading some of the better free books to peruse them. If I liked them I wouldn't actually read the entire book on the computer. I'd probably just order a copy from Amazon.com or head to the local bookstore.

Peale's book? Wasn't meaning to reference it as an ebook as I don't know.
The book was a best seller for like forever and every used bookstore in America should have a dozen copies as it has been reprinted and reprinted over the years.
