(Or maybe I don't know hoiw to download them correctly). 2 minutes per page is spent on mouse clicks. That's because the Mystic Seaport page has a SEPARATE page for each book page. In "normal formats" you dont download one page at a time, but the whole book. > Mystic Seaport started assembling their site, Once I asked them for the whole file of Norie's book. they made it in the same day and uploaded to my computer via ftp (in .pdf) The only disadvantage is that I had to pay $25 for this. So they do have a .pdf file, at least of this book. At least now they do have this file:-) Alex.
