MOBI Books

Post by Bladerunner »

Does anyone know any good links for survival/prepping books in MOBi format.

I got a kindle for my birthday and that is the format for them. I can only seem to find them in PDF format and converting them doesn't work that well.

I have a hang crank for charging it up and thought it would come in handy if the power grid went down. 3000 books in such a small device is a massive advantage. Beats trying to learn everything about everything although that woul be a big plus. Does anyone have a photographic mind going spare? ;)

Thanks in advance.

I'd give you my photographic memory but i don't think we are able to do brain transplants yet ;p

Also: hit up the kindle store on amazon. Tons are there. As for iphones: there are number of free survival books in the app store.

Kindles can take pdf, can't they? Big uh-oh moment for me if they can't :(

I came across this blog a while ago: http://pamspriderecommendations.blogspot.de/ each UK evening, she has free kindle books listed. Its a bit of a faff, because her links are to .com, whereas I can only download from .co.uk, and there is a slightly weird sense to a lot of it, but there are some really handy things there that I've not seen anywhere else (ignore "How to french braid" :lol: she also has "How to change transmission fluid" and "How to build a hanging chicken feeder").

Do you literally have a hand crank? I'd be very interested in the details of whatever you *do* have :)
