Best method to search for eBooks via Google
Google is still by far the most powerful search engine in the world, it crawls the web at an astonishing rate, indexing everything the bot can get it hands on. A few simple filtering string will do the trick in search of PDF files or any file extension you specified. For instant, using the ‘filetype’ Google Search filter, I was able to search for the free book from Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities in ePub and PDF format.
Help! I could not find the book I needed!
Free eBook are everywhere, if you are having a hard time searching for the book and it is available in Amazon for a price, which happens to be the largest online bookstore in the world, it means the book is copyrighted.
My advice is to respect the author’s creation and hard work, purchase the original.
