Mathematical Tools for Physics by James Nearing - nice overview of many useful topics in mathematics from a physicists perspective.

Simple Nature by Ben Crowell. A free textbook comparable to ours. Takes a different approach to many topics. It is worth a look if you are not a fan of Young and Freedman.

HyperPhysics a nicely linked site that covers most of physics at roughly the same level as this class.
