Free ebook

[kimmer]

I accidentally purchased an extra ebook copy of "Overboard! A True Blue-water Odyssey of Disaster and Survival" by Michael J. Tougias. I have it in mobi format, and I can give it to ONE person. You can't shouldn't give it away when you are done reading it. If you're interested, drop me a note.

Edited to add: For the record, the book is a legal book, and no it doesn't have DRM in it. I paid for it. And I bought other books at the same time and accidentally put a second copy in my cart, didn't notice, checked out, and downloaded ALL the books -- including 2 copies of this book. So I'm happy to give it to ONE person since I have ONE extra copy.

There are a few apps that will convert most 'shook' formats into several others, so don't let that be a deterrent. If it's DRMed, it may require a separate/another app first. I might be interested. Does the book have lots of pictures? Preferably colored...

Rather than fighting the DRM, one can usually get a free ebook reader from whatever company sells a book with their DRM on it; Kindle (Amazon)/Nook (Barnes & Noble)/etc. all make Mac/iPad/iPhone(?) versions of readers that enable their books to be read, legally(!).

Hey Jim, I  thought you'd like the ones you can colour in yourself

Pics are all B&W, 15 of them? Can't quite remember. And um ... the other issue ... ssshhh ... drop me a PM.

I do, but those often have grey-scale printing on them. In that case, I have to use crayons rather than my water colors. It's harder to get smooth gradients with crayons.

I love to color with crayons, and even with colored pencils, but I’m not very good with watercolors. Do you remember scribbling with all different colors of crayons and then coloring over it all with black crayon and then scraping some of the black off? Your first piece of abstract art for mom to hang on the fridge.
