Has anybody tried this yet? They have a bunch of real and model train books in their search. Most have a preview of the books. Even the limited previews seem to be about half the book on line.

It is a great resource for a lot of stuff as I’m finding out!!
I have been using Google books for over a year. I model 1900 and I have downloaded many books for that era. I also have a Google account with a library of the same books. I found some on Amazon dated 1900, one for $6.00 and one for $30.00. Correspondence school books from that era.
Good reference as sometimes you can find the book through inter-library loan.

I like previewing books before I buy. This is a great source to see the Kalmbach books and some of their content before plopping down $20.
