Free Books!
My family is cleaning out my grandparent's house. While going through their attic they found a large collection of books that were given to my grandfather back when he more frequently did house painting and delivered papers. So far I've gone through 4 boxes worth of books. Most seem to have been printed around the 1940's and range from a few classics to trashy romance novels (of the 40's) to religious texts. Most also seem to have been discarded by libraries. If anyone is interested in any of these, let me know. They're free and need a new home.
