Answer 1

Answer: To download free books .pdf format from Google Book API, we need to get the download link of pdf from JSON query and then send it into webview. That's it.

String url = "http://books.google.co.in/books/download/The_Child_s_Own_Story_Book.pdf?id=9WevWtW5KMUC&hl=&output=pdf&sig=ACfU3U0LWT7WWnfdtxAFbBctZk4aALv8gA&source=gbs_api";

webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.loadUrl(url);
