Google Books has an entry for the book. No preview not even the title
page. Usually you get the TOC or the cross reference in the back. It could be in the process of digitizing or they dont have a copy. There was a recent article in the NYTimes where Google in a court case has to make a good faith effort to notify the authors of expired copyright material that they are making the material available. Which raises the question, what is the point. For all you used book dealers who are probably crying, Point 1 who says you are allowed to profit just because you have a copy, Point 2 if it looks interesting enough on Google Id probably buy your copy.

You can use Google Books to find out what other books quote "All About
Tea" ie find the string. Somebody must be making a serious point about tea. I zeroxed more than a few Chinese grammar books at the library. I probably paid more than waiting and buying a used copy. All the books are on Google. I use that for searchable content. Google will provide the page reference even if not available for preview.
