When I want to check on something in a book using Google, I just go to the
main page, put in the title of the book, in quotes if it's more than one
word, the author, also in quotes, then, also in quotes, enter the three or
four words immediately preceding or following what I want to check. There's
nothing to click. That's it. If Google has the book, I get the info I need.
I've done this many times, so I know it works. You may need to try both
words preceding and following what you want to check, depending on the
snippet Google will show you. But, if Google has the book, doing one or the
other, or both, of those will give you what you need.
