If I'm not mistaken, the site you suggest only shows books that are for sale. If so, it seems wise to me to first 'faff around with google", or any other search engine, to be sure that the wanted book is not on the web to download for free. Only after such a search turns up nothing, a site like you suggested could be useful.

Does the site you suggest show all the books that are for sale at a given moment, no matter who wants to sell them? Could you please elaborate on that?

As a test I entered a couple of titles/authors in the search box on the site you suggested but the results the site turned up with were so few that I have my doubts about its range/completeness.

Just a thought, "Mullard Circuits for Audio Amplifiers" is in English and can be downloaded at no cost from Primary Windings.

There are over 100 pages, comprehensive circuits and chassis layout for preamps, main amplifiers and power supplies with a graphical display of response curves. Circuit explanations etc.

It doesn't include the valve characteristics but they are available elsewhere.

Wind your neck in. I was just trying to help.

As, from reading the posts prior to mine, it appeared to be the case that the book isn't available for downloading; and as others have posted links to purchase a hardcopy of the book from, I was just trying to help by posting a link to a site I had found useful in the past for comparing sources of books.

I've no idea, as I have said, it is a site I, and millions of others have found useful. Do your own research.

You are, ofcourse free to do as you please, and draw your own conclusions. I was only trying to help, I won’t bother in the future.

Or a link to where I might find one.

Best regards,

A link was given in post #11.

I believe there are two different books, although with some crossover in content.

Thank you for the link to the Philips amplifier book.

I don't read Dutch at all, but the circuits in the Dutch book, and the valves used in them, are not the same as those in the English book. Some of the circuits in the latter seem very familiar
