Google Books. If you go to Google, there is a link on the top for More, select books. You can then search for some neat old titles. Search for authors, to terms (Bannerstone, Birdstone, etc.) Check Full View off to the side to get see only full books. Check out some of the early Wisconsin Archaeologists, as well as journals from Ohio to see some very neat mound finds, and my favorite, some old classified ads from the turn of the century.

BTW, I just click the PDF button and download the books and read them later. They can be a bit slow to flip through on the google site.

As an example here is a full copy of The Stone Age in North America by Warren K Moorehead.

Here is another Moorehead book from 1905, Prehistoric Relics.

Here is the Stone Age in New Jersey from 1877, not a great read but I didn't even know this book existed before I found it while searching for Bannerstone.
