*British Library's pdf download, said to be "good for reading large amounts of text"
*British Library's itemVIEWER, said to be "good for images". Note 1. it is possible to rotate pages, if required. Note 2. it is not possible to navigate from page to page using the 'Full Screen' viewing option.This is only possible from the default page, which is a disadvantage when reading text. Check whether there is an alternative format available elsewhere e.g. Archive.org.
*British Library's Digital item, with a different format to itemViewer. These may be very slow to load, and you may need to try a few times. For a larger book image, close the 'Contents' and 'More information' sections. More recent digital files appear to be in this third format, but currently there still appear to be earlier digitised files using the previous formats.

**These books may also be located through Google Books's usual search. It is not possible however, to specifically locate books from the British Library through the Google Books search.
