One source for certain books is www.loc.gov, the US Library of Congress. If they have them online, the displayed copies are in excellent condition and exceedingly readable.

But they tend to be US topics.

I have had to try 3 different versions to get an full page and for one book, there simply was no map, even though it was listed, in any of the books.

But back to topic, Ian Hamilton's March, a Churchill book, is another one I was able to get, which was not available online otherwise, except as displayed in a later copyrighted work where I could not be sure what was Churchill's and what was the editors.
