Available FREE from the iOS App Store NOW!

A new way of reading illustrated military books…

If you’re an illustrated military books enthusiast, you’ll know that there is currently very little available for you to read as an ebook, and the readers that are available don’t provide an enjoyable reading experience.

Military Books is a free download from the iOS App Store. You can browse the app’s bookshelves in the same way you would in a regular bookstore, and view some sample pages. Buying a book puts it on your own shelf (My Books) for instant reference. You can use the inbuilt e-reader to zoom into the pages and look at the photos and artworks in fantastic detail—it’s a reading experience that’s even better than a printed book!

The app also contains “Free Kit”—artworks, photographs, text, and much more—that is yours for absolutely no cost. You don’t even have to buy a book to get it! Plus you get the opportunity to interact with other military book enthusiasts, and even make suggestions for future titles!

‘We intend Military Books to become the destination of choice for anyone interested in illustrated military books. For the reader, the app is simple to use, and a fantastic way to see a book’s photos, maps and artworks in great detail. For military publishers, it is an inexpensive, fast, and secure way to get highly illustrated print content available online.’ – Charles Catton, Publishing Manager, Amber Books Ltd.

‘The History Press is delighted to be partnering with Amber Books on the launch of the app, Military Books. As leaders in the field of illustrated history under our Spellmount military imprint we feel that this app will deliver the military enthusiast an entirely new reading experience. The app's unique features of integral page layout and zoom function, allow the reader to really get close to the detail of weaponry, uniforms and military terrain in a way that brings the printed book to life. We hope this innovative approach to ebooks will inspire a whole new readership and we look forward to getting to know them through the Military Books' interactive forum.’ – Jo de Vries, Senior Commissioning Editor Military History, Spellmount/The History Press
