I recently download the entire Mises Library of books that are in PDF format. If you have a book you've been wanting to get but simply don't have the money for then I would be glad to email a specific work to you.

Just make a post here or send me a private message with your email address and I will get it right to you.

I also have the complete series of journals that the Mises Institute publishes and some 1950's one's that involve Hazlitt and Garet Garret.

It's not in the Mises library so no. What they are selling in the store is what I have

"Add comment" under your profile is private messages right? I think I sent you my email and requested Boundaries of Order by Butler Shaffer. Thanks again man.

No.  Start Conversation.

Some people have convos turned off unless you are on their friend list.  Add them as a friend, and then when they add you back, you can PM them via Conversation.

Profile comments add a note on the profile page, and they are public, and rarely seen by the profile owner.

Sent. And no it is possible to start conversations with me. It better alerts me to the premise that someone is trying to contact me. I don't get alerts from my wall.

so, are these books that are digitized but not available free directly off the site, or the torrent? im confused about what files you downloaded and why others might not do the same...

Oh they are. Just someone people don't want to download the whole library or don't know how to use utorrent. Plus all of the torrents in their raw form have mismatched names so I went through them all, gave them all the right titles, archived them into several subjects

-Biography

-History

-Economics

-Political Philosophy

-US Domestic Policy

-US Foreign Policy

 

So I figured it would be easier to pass out literature on a need basis.

Yea it took me about 3 hours to go through all of the titles and correct them. I don't understand the reasoning for the shorthand but eh you get hundreds of books for free so can you really complain? Anyways if you know of  a service that can email large files for free then I'd be much appreciative if you told me. Someone asked me for Human Action and that alone is 52 MB. Not many mailers can handle that size.

Sweet. Some of the sites I've tried are just free trial crap. I hate that junk. It's almost like false advertising.

Yousendit has a 1 GB per month bandwidth limit (only counts how much bandwidth is used when people download your files).

Also, a while back, many of us renamed the ebooks posted on mises:

http://mises.org/Community/forums/p/5746/157427.aspx

http://mises.org/Community/forums/p/8097/157098.aspx

I have since renamed all of the ebooks to [Mises.org]LastName,Firstname.-.Title.of.Book.pdf and have been sharing them on ED2K ever since.

Also, that was when we (mostly me) bothered Jeffrey Tucker enough to finally stop posting such short and unhelpful title names.  It has since gotten much better.

I'm not sure of the purpose of this post. What ebooks do you have that aren't freely available in the Literature section of mises.org?

For example, Salamanca34 asked you for a copy of Reassessing the Presidency, however the user could have found it after a quick search of this site.
