Hi Philip :party:

You can extract a sort of 'preview' of each page, but it's too low resolution to read. What Google appear to have done is arrange a sort of array of individual pieces of each page, into one big image, on the zoomed-in pages. If you were really, really patient, you could download each individual piece, and stitch them together (or perhaps find a supernerd to write a script to do that). If there's a specific article you want, then I can put it together for you, otherwise you might be better off just printscreening and dumping each page into MS Paint, etc.

Cheers, went the printscreen route. Not worth all that faffing about for one article.
