Came across this website by the name of ‘Forgotten Books’ courtesy Mumbai Mirror. They have a collection of books on varied topics ranging from Folklore to Fairy Tales, religion, science, philosophy, fiction, non-fiction, mythology, etc. Many of these are long lost books which were first published ages ago. You get to read these online plus you get the option to buy them if you want to.

Randomly browsed through the list and picked up a book on Cartomancy and another one on Indian Folk Tales.

The pros – Good collection on a variety of topics, hassle free navigation, clutter free page.

The cons – Didn’t find any option to save a copy of the book. So every time I have to read it, I have to log on to the net and many a times the book takes quite a while to load.

Overall a site worth bookmarking. Check it out…
