Great Work. Should make for some good reading.

I've downloaded the image files (all 600+ megs of them). I converted the images from greyscale to black-and-white (which shrunk them down to 60+ megs of images). I combined them to form two .pdf files, one per volume (roughly 50 megs in total, or 25 megs per .pdf file).

I tried to upload them here, but the connection kept timing out.

These files are now available.

Thanks!

It's utterly amazing that maxwell's origional written equations and studies weren't in the public domain for such a long time.

Here's two more of Maxwell's previous articles before he wrote the 1873 Treatise;

On Physical Lines Of Force - 1861

A Dynamical Theory of the Electromagnetic Field - 1865 - Google Books

Be sure to make copies of these before they get yanked from the web as well.

BTW, the Carnegie site is down.   Maybe the TPTB tried to stop people from getting a hold of Maxwell's treatise?   As I said in the original message, keep making copies so Maxwell's work doesn't dissappear from the web.
