Jim, before I sell my soul and register is that just a search-and-snippett site, or does it allow you to download entire books?

I haven't tried to download anything yet, but the texts I've looked at you could view the whole book. A lot of this stuff is html though, rather than PDF. Jim

Edward Everett, a member of the Quincy Riflemen, was stationed in San Antonio during the Mexican War. Most of you are familiar with the plats and drawings of the Alamo that he made as part of his official duties. Here are his Mexican War reminiscences, in three parts: the part concerning his duties at the Alamo begin on p. 210, but the whole thing is worth reading: books.google.com/books?id=AhsLAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA214&dq=alamo+quartermaster+1847&as_brr=1#PPA210,M1
