Oh, archaeology buffs unite! Wheeler’s stuff is fascinating, but yeah, tracking it down for free isn’t always easy. I’d recommend starting with Open Library—they sometimes have lesser-known titles available for borrowing digitally. Another angle: scholarly databases like JSTOR or Academia.edu occasionally offer free access to older papers or book excerpts. You might not find the full book, but you could discover related essays or lectures by Wheeler.
Don’t overlook used-book sites like AbeBooks, either; while they’re not free, sometimes sellers list previews or excerpts. And hey, if you’re into archaeology, Wheeler’s contemporaries like T.E. Lawrence or Gertrude Bell might have similar works floating around freely. It’s like piecing together a dig site—patience pays off!
Finding free online copies of niche books like 'Mortimer Wheeler: Adventurer in Archaeology' can be tricky, but I’ve spent way too much time hunting down obscure titles, so I might have some leads. First, check out Archive.org—they’ve got a massive collection of digitized books, and older academic works sometimes pop up there. I remember stumbling upon a few archaeology texts there last year. Project Gutenberg is another solid option, though it leans more toward literature. If those don’t work, try searching Google Books with ‘full view’ or ‘preview’ filters; sometimes, you can read substantial chunks for free.
Libraries are also low-key heroes here. Many university libraries offer digital access to their catalogs, and some public libraries partner with services like Hoopla or OverDrive. If you’re lucky, Wheeler’s work might be tucked away in one of those. Just a heads-up: older books like this often slip into the public domain, but copyright laws vary, so double-check the status. I love the thrill of the hunt, though—there’s something satisfying about unearthing a rare read like this.
Wheeler’s writings are gems, but free versions are scarce. I’d hit up specialized forums like Reddit’s r/archaeology or r/FreeEBOOKS—someone might’ve shared a link or PDF. Also, check WorldCat to see if any libraries near you have physical copies; interlibrary loans can be a lifesaver. If all else fails, Wheeler’s radio broadcasts or lectures might be archived on sites like BBC Sounds. Not the same as the book, but still a glimpse into his mind.

Esmerelda Sleuth: The Other Side of the Mirror (Book 1)
Meet Esmerelda Sleuth. Sleuth is her name and investigating is her game. (Paranormal Investigating, that is.)
Esmerelda makes a good living as an investigator in a rather progressive firm. She lives a stable and sensible life until she meets Lance; an old money "hottie" who works for a real estate firm next to her building. After accepting an invitation for a weekend getaway party, she quickly discovers that Lance has a secret. He is wealthy. That part is true. And, yes, he's procured a job as a realtor in the building next door. His secret is that he belongs to an underground society of humans who didn't abandon their connection to magic centuries ago when religion declared it evil and he has traveled through time specifically to find her and bring her back to his time to marry him. If that isn't enough of a far fetched tale to absorb, he informs her that she was born in his time to a family belonging to that same secret society and was promised in marriage to him as an infant. When enemies who didn't want to see the union of families take place made attempts on her life, her parents sent her into the future and erased her memories of them as a precaution.
Possessing virtually no belief in magic, ghosts, psychics, time travel, etc., it takes some doing on Lance's part to convince her to believe his story and go back with him. When she does, the lies, deceit and attempts on her life start all over again. Will she escape emotionally and physically unscathed?
