As you know, Google has good potential for you to find whatever you are after on the internet. Whether it is a video files, a secret video cam, all of them are on your finger tips if you know how to manipulate the Google search engine. What are going to be shared today is how to search for an e-book. I’m sure a lot of us here love to read e-book right?

To search for an e-book, try the following.

Go to Google’s search page and use the following search strings in the search dialog

intitle:index.of? File extension Name of an e-book

As example: intitle:index.of? chm Windows XP Guide

This will give you a listing of all websites that Google has cached that contain references to files in CHM format that are related to Windows XP Guide e-book. While for PDF type of e-book, use this search string.

e.g. intitle:index.of? pdf “Windows XP Guide”

For a better result, (but not specific)why not try this search string.

+(“index of”) +(“/ebooks”|”/book”) +(chm|pdf|zip|rar) +Windows XP Guide
or
allinurl: +(rar|chm|zip|pdf|tgz) +Windows XP Guide

This will get you the list of e-book in both chm and pdf file format or in file archive like zip or rar. Happy Googling!
