I "almost" have an electronic copy of "Fortran 77" by Organick & Meissner -
the text and the page layout are all there, and some of the figures that I
have redrawn, but some additional figures that need to be scanned in have
not been done yet.
If I thought it would be of any use, I'd finish up this project and post it
on the Web or pass it on to Walt Brainerd who might sell it for a few
dollars a copy to cover expenses. It is out of print at Addison-Wesley (the
original publisher) and they have released the copyright to me and Organick,
and I bought out his interest a few years ago when I wanted to incorporate
some examples etc. in my F90 text.
If there's any interest, please get in touch with me or Walt or Mike.

>It's very difficult to find information about Fortran II and IV from the
web nowadays.<
Actually, it always was. The early versions of Fortran were around prior to
1970, the Web was invented only in 1990. However, if you care to trot along
to an old-fashioned library, I'm sure you'll find some ancient books,
Organick or McCracken, for example, that will explain all. For a summary,
try the article on "Fortran" in the "Encyclopedia of Physical Science and
Technology" (Academic Press, 1986, 1992).
