I'd love to have an - illustrated - e-book of his classic "The Old Straight Track". But I can't even find a badly scanned version.

Although ley-lines might not be to everbody's taste, the book which started it all is a fascinating historical document, and well worth reading.
There are several of his books at archive.org, although none with that title. Unless it's another name for "Early British trackways:moats, mounds, camps and sites"

[Edit: no, I see that was probably an earlier version, published 1922 not 1925.]
