Hi,

You can now download this book for free at this site https://www.hathitrust.org/ Just go to the site, type in the name of the book then click on "full view". You can either view it or download it to your computer.

Wish I'd known this a few years ago as I paid $50 for the book.

Downloading the whole book is for members of "partner institutions" and requires you to sign in with the correct log in details

Users affiliated with HathiTrust partner institutions are able to download full-PDFs of all public domain works, and works made available in under Creative Commons licenses. Users who are not affiliated with HathiTrust partner institutions can download single-page PDFs of all public domain works, full-PDFs of works made available under Creative Commons licenses, and full-PDFs of public domain works that are not subject to third-party agreements (see "Why isn't full-PDF download publicly available for all viewable items" below). There is significant overlap of volumes in HathiTrust and Google Book Search and if a book is "full view" in HathiTrust, it is possible that a PDF of the entire book can be downloaded from Google Book Search. Note that logging in through a Friend account does not enable full-PDF download of Google-digitized materials.

Hi RJ,

You are right, I didn't try to download because I already have the book. I was given this info by a member of my genealogy club. However you can scroll to the page you want and then save that particular page to your computer.......I just did it.
