Not really. It's all archived at the American Philosophical Society, and
they'll make copies of it for people, but it's not cheap.

Swadesh's Chitimacha *grammar* scarcely needs to be revised at all -- pretty
much all it would need would be to have Swadesh's weird transcription system
(i.e., his unfortunate habit of writing ejectives as voiced) fixed to be
more in line with modern linguistic practices.
