Mayrie,
Thanks for the info, but I'm sighted and the pages should be
accessible.. At Amazon you can search inside your chosen book. There is
then an empty box in which to enter your search. When I enter the page
number in this search box, I don't get any hits. Any ideas?
Debbie

Hi Debbie,
Searching to look at a page works if you are sighted. If you
are
blind, those pages aren't accessible. At least they never have been for
me.
Think it's because they're pictures of the pages.

Cindy,
What a great tip! I tried to search for a specific page number in the
Search box at Amazon and nothing came up. Do you know if you have to
search by phrase or if there is a way to do a page number search?
Thanks,
Debbie

Georgina,
Someone recently told me that one can check pages, sometimes, on Amazon
if one is allowed to look inside the book, so I tried it.
p. 82 begins: even better than it smelled and belonged to a far
different culinary world than my usual midday ..."
p. 83 begins: explained, "the worst were the kidnappings, where they
would burst into houses and cull the young, beautiful women. ..."
Do a search for those words. If the text is there, then Mayrie is
probably right that the pages are just mis-numbered.
I can request the book and get the pages for you; as Marilyn says it
might take several days but I don't think it will be two to three weeks.
Cindy
