Forgot to mention:

To you Napoleonic history enthusiasts, there are many, many books under $4 USD that include a lot of period memoirs and older books. Kincaid, Harris, Foy, Marshal MacDonald, Suchet, Lejeune, Blaze, Mercer, Coignet to name a few. Many available for 99 cents. Of course Marshal Oudinot's memoir is listed but unavailable due to quality issues!
