(It is recommended that you access this post from the mobile device where you want the app installed and then follow the instructions).</p> <p>Then you can go to the Kindle Store and activate your device per the instructions and begin downloading Kindle books. Remember that there are many FREE Kindle Books (see below) and that you can also import certain types of books from Google Books and Internet Archive (also see below).</p> <h2>How I Use Kindle for Genealogy</h2> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625190500/http://geneabloggers.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/kindle-app.jpg"><img class="alignnone wp-image-27338 size-full" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625190500im_/http://geneabloggers.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/kindle-app.jpg" alt="Thomas MacEntee's Kindle App" width="640" height="374"/></a></p> <p>The image above is a screen capture from my own Kindle App on my PC desktop. The fact is, I don’t own a Kindle device because I feel I already have too many devices between my laptop, my iPad and my iPhone. So why not enable these devices so they can access my Kindle books? That’s why the Kindle App is so important.</p> <p>If you take a close look you can see I read books on social media, business, creativity, entrepreneurship as well as genealogy. Many genealogy books like <em><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625190500/http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DRC963K/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00DRC963K&linkCode=as2&tag=geneabloggers-20&linkId=6W7KIQYMNBXXT3EE" rel="nofollow" title="Advanced Genealogy Research Techniques">Advanced Genealogy Research Techniques</a></em> by George G. Morgan and Drew Smith are available in Kindle format.</p> <p>Another trick: if I can download the EPUB format of a public domain book from Google Books or Internet Archive, I then upload it to the Kindle App . . . like <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625190500/https://archive.org/details/historyofstjohns00stjo2" rel="nofollow" title="The History of St. John's Episcopal Church, Monticello, New York for One Hundred Years, 1816-1916"><em>The History of St. John’s Episcopal Church, Monticello, New York for One Hundred Years, 1816-1916</em></a>. This way, I have it accessible on my iPad or other devices and I consult the book while on a research trip. I can even access <a href="<a%20target="_blank"href="http://www.amazon.com/associates/AppDownload/?ref=assoc_tag_ph_1402131685749&_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=pf4&program=1&tag=geneabloggers-20&linkId=UQIECHWBOUZH6P26">Amazon.com - Read eBooks using the FREE Kindle Reading App on Most Devices</a><img src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=geneabloggers-20&l=pf4&o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />" rel="nofollow" title="Thomas MacEntee genealogy books">my own books</a> by uploading the EPUB file to the Kindle App.</p> <p>The fact is, with the Kindle App, you can transform your tablet computer or other mobile device into a genealogy resource center.

Decisive battle for Scottish independence in which a smaller force of Scots (mainly pike men) under Robert the Bruce defeated the English (with 3,000 horsemen) under King Edward II. The battle took place by the strategically important Stirling Castle at the Bannock Burn stream and the River Forth. The battle began June 23 and ended June 24 in a rout— the worst English defeat since the Battle of Hastings.">Battle of Bannockburn</a> – 700th Anniversary, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625190500/http://www.biography.com/people/henry-ward-beecher-9204662" rel="nofollow" title="June 24, 1813. Famous clergyman and orator, brother of Harriet Beecher Stowe, born at Litchfield, CT. From the pulpit at Plymouth Church, Beecher advocated for many controversial issues of his era, including temperance, women’s suffrage, Darwinian evolution, and— most notably— abolition. Beecher’s tactics in support of abolition were often sensational and contentious, as was the case when he raised money to provide rifles— widely dubbed “Beecher’s Bibles”— to antislavery settlers in Kansas in 1856. In the 1870s Beecher was the subject of one of the biggest scandals of the century— the Beecher-Tilton Affair— when he was accused of adultery by a parishioner and sued in civil court. The trial resulted in a hung jury, and although Beecher was exonerated by two ecclesiastical courts, public opinion about his innocence was divided. Died Mar 8, 1887, at Brooklyn, NY.

In the early days of the Cold War the Soviet Union challenged the West’s right of access to Berlin. The Soviets created a blockade, and an airlift to supply some 2,250,000 people resulted. The airlift lasted a total of 321 days and brought into Berlin 1,592,787 tons of supplies. Joseph Stalin finally backed down and the blockade ended May 12, 1949.">Berlin Airlift</a> – Anniversary, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625190500/http://www.catholic.org/saints/saint.php?saint_id=152" rel="nofollow" title="The birth of Saint John the Baptist is celebrated on June 24th.">Feast of Saint John the Baptist</a>, and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625190500/http://www.learner.org/biographyofamerica/prog14/transcript/page03.html" rel="nofollow" title="June 24, 1839. American industrialist known for revolutionizing the meatpacking industry. He commissioned the development of the refrigerator car, which allowed the transportation of processed meat for the first time, and his company was one of the first in modern history to implement “vertical integration”: it had departments for purchasing, production, shipping, sales and marketing. Swift was also a pioneer in using by-products of animal parts previously discarded for products like glue, fertilizer and soap; this efficiency was the model for the contemptuous fictional Durham Company in Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle. Born at Sandwich, MA, Swift died Mar 29, 1903, at Chicago, IL.">Gustavus Swift’s Birthday</a> – 175th Anniversary.</li> </ul> <h2>Daily Blogging Prompts</h2> <p>Many genealogy and family history bloggers like to post to their blogs every day, but at times are at a loss for ideas.
