| Online, free and *absolutely* excellent:
| http://www.courses.fas.harvard.edu/~phys16/Textbook/
| and
| http://www.courses.fas.harvard.edu/~phys16/lectures/
| If you are not interested in relativity, then stop after chapter 9,
| otherwise happily continue ;-)
And there is also Christoph Schiller's "Motion Mountain" that I forgot; 1000
pages of free physics covering the whole gambit.
