Please note the typo “mounty” in the above label but it leads straight to the book. Try the “Flip Pages” option.

It is worth remembering that when you download from this site the PDF gives you the old yellow (sign of age) pages, while the B/W PDF gives you the white new looking book. For good image quality the yellow type is best as you can then take it into a graphics program to give it the look you prefer. I have found that the new scanned pages (then turned white) give a washed out look!!.

Thanks to Peter Metzke for this lead.
