I have just downloaded a free book "The Forest of Dean" by HG Nicholls written in 1858. It is a history of the Forest and seems quite interesting.
It is on the Project Gutenberg website which aims to provide free ebooks online to anyone and has a very large number of books available.
If anyone is interested the link to this book is www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/24505
