In Feburary 2011, I broke my right leg and ended up having to deal with an extend stay in the hospital and time away from work. I was given an eReader as a get well gift and have been using it to kill the time. One of the things I found is that many classic woodworking books are available in electronic format for free. Many of these come from Google Books.

You can read these books on-line using your web browser and down load them to your computer and save them there if you like. If you have an eReader, such as a Sony, Kindle, or Nook you can send the books to them and use them on your reader. This also can work on iOS devices (iPhone/iPad) and Android smartphones if you download an eBook reader application. eReader applications are available from Apple, Amazon, and Barnes and Noble as well as others.

If your adverse to technology, many of these books have been reprinted and are available on Amazon.com in hard copy. Simply go to http://Amazon.com and search for the book's title or author. Also, I have seen a number of these books in Amazon's Kindle store. You can see Amazon's current list of Kindle woodworking books at the following link.

If your interested in discussing eReader technology let me know, I have used Various iPhone and iPad eReader applications, the Nook Color and Kindle eReaders.

I'm going to keep a running list of eBooks and links to them here. I will add to the list over time.

Finally I'm with you!

I thought I gave the Kindle back to my X wife who got it as a company present. I called her today and she said it was still in my place and if I could find it it was a gift from her. So I looked some more and found it right where I left it… lol.
So now I suck from your wonderful links, thank you.
Wood Font Tool Metal Art

I also recived a pack with a carvers mallet and a set of used Stubai carving chisels and 2 knifes I bought from our Danish E-bay for 75 dollar, I think it was a fair deal, so guess what books I will look for!
Best thoughts,

Wow the carving set looks nice and I think the price is great. I am going to need to find something similar. I need to see what I have set aside in the shop before I go too far. I have picked up some knives and stuff along the way when looking for other tools.

Time for some free books. There are some pretty interesting historical books that keep with the line of discussion on traditional woodworking that has been going in our handsaw and handplane community. (references for others that had not picked up the discussion)
