Terrific!

I am reminded, too, of this site, which has grand aspirations. I
don't know how many books they will ultimately have online though.

http://www.foodsville.com/book/alpha

I have found it somewhat hard to navigate here (and thus the
tense), and it may require membership. I dunno. It's affiliated
with a Boston-area company that issues reprints of old books.
