It seems likely, however, that he must have availed himself of copyrighted images at some point. Hard to say.

You can still find the contents at the "Internet Archive" website at: http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://generalsandbrevets.com It is a great site for retrieving lost content...

Maybe he's turning the free website into a paying book, which would account for no reply to a very kind (and rational) offer: I've seen several people do that. Still, if public domain, a valuable resource should not be allowed to perish. Another vote for SWOOP and notify.

If the photos are in the PD, and you can replicate that site, please do and let me know how I could help. Getting photos like that and others especially relating to the Maryland Campaign (including maps) on your site or a linked site such as those from the LOC, Harpers Ferry, etc., would be very valuable for many researchers.
