I got on there with Lynx 2.6.  It supported enough frames to get 
around the site.  I actually saw my first frames ever on this site, 
after selecting "reading room" off the main page.  When I selected the 
second of the three frames, I was in a list of topics, from which I 
was able to get a list of books.  That's where you finally get into 
trouble.  They are using something called DocuWeb, from Xerox, for 
many of the books.  I guess this is Xerox's answer to PDF.  Some of 
the books are in HTML, and I suppose one could use the list in the 
referenced message to figure out which books might have HTML 
versions.  They did say they are working on a text version of their 
page, so we'll see.
