Thank you Alan and also Jane (who emailed me offlist) for reminding us about Project Gutenberg which has several books that could be useful to Warwickshire researchers. One example is 11416 Pye, Charles, 1777-1864 A Description of Modern Birmingham Whereunto Are Annexed Observations Made during an Excursion Round the Town, in the Summer of 1818, Including Warwick and Leamington. Please ensure that you abide by the Copyright Laws of your Country before downloading anything! However, as far as I can tell Project Gutenberg lacks google books detailed searching which allows you to search within a book for a word or phrase without having to dowload the whole thing and read it !!! This is great as Ann and I are way behind with the ironing as it is! Good hunting. Wendy
