I know genealogists are a generous bunch when it comes to look-ups, but asking someone to photocopy an entire 300 page book, and possibly violate copyright law in the process? Not a good idea. Have you tried asking your local librarian to request a copy via interlibrary loan, therefore putting the responsibility for any copyright violations squarely on your own shoulders? And then there are the many used book sites. See: http://www.bibliofind.com http://www.bookfinder.com http://www.alibris.com http://www.abe.com Good luck!
