Fossils, Finches and Fuegians: Charles Darwin’s Adventures and Discoveries on the Beagle (Text Only) is a biographical account of Darwin during the voyage. The Kindle version lacks the pictures, but if you have Alan Moorehead’s Darwin and the Beagle then you probably have all those pictures. I’m not sure if this is a worthy addition to the average person’s library, but if you have all the Darwin books and don’t have this one, this is a chance to fix that for a mere two bucks.
Barbara Tuchman’s A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century is available on Kindle for 1.99. It is audible enabled.

I am sorry these discounts were not available to you. If, however, you write one more post with this crappy attitude of your, you will be banned from this site. Be careful.
I’ve read Barbara Tuchman’s WWI book “The Guns of August” and another book about the first recognition by a foreign power of the U.S. as a nation (my old brain has let the title slip by) and liked them so I was very pleased to be tipped off about this one, “A Distant Mirror.” set, I understand, in the 1300s. Thanks for the information. Some books go off sale quickly so I bought it immediately at $1.99.
