When I was trying to download a book I was asked to register for a Google account. I suppose you had to, too (or had already registered before)?! I hesitated after reading the terms of use and data privacy statement, some paragraphs appeared a bit slippery; they seem to provide data access to others. Is it for sure that I'm not automatically purchasing anything or going to receive thousands of spams?

[RJNorton]

Eva, I do not know about others, but I have had a Google account for years and have not had a problem.

[BettyO]

Eva - I haven't had a problem either -- but try the instructions here to access FREE Books without having to register for Google....

Thank you so much, touching was the clue. I always clicked on the red button. It's a great link, I've only downloaded music yet, never knew that there are also free books available!

Good link Gene. I wonder if anyone has ever read the complete diary of Gideon Welles...Besides Welles himself.
