It's always great when a good book is released under a free license. This should be the normal case for all books that are out of print.

Unfortunately, most books simply vanish and/or have an unclear legal status.

What's up with the printer friendly version? It doesn't work for me.

Good to know it's not just me. (Chrome dev 6.0.458.1 and Safari both no-go on OSX 10.6.4.)

Awesome timing. I'm just starting to contemplate porting the prototype VM i'm working on to C. Thanks Mahmud! You seem to be coming to the rescue often these days :-p

Misery loves company? More seriously, I take your point. I say that a lot ("Good to know it's not just me."). I'll have to think a little bit more about why.

The book is from 1991, almost 20 years ago. There is a lot of outdated information. You should perhaps look for something more recent, that covers C99 and features commonly found on current compilers.
