Try this link. As the original publisher was the now defunct Sheed and Ward, the other link was doubtless a misspelling of "sheedbook," but that site no longer exists either.

Nowadays some readers, especially Americans, find Knox's prose difficult to come to grips with—this is merely a statement of fact, not an evaluation, far less a criticism, of this work or of Knox's style generally. You must decide for yourself, of course.

Our Lord is hitting me on the head with a number of coincidental happenings regarding conformity to His Divine Will. To that end, thank you for the corrected information claudel. I believe I will enjoy the good Monsignor's style.

Unfortunately they want credit card information to start their "free trial", I'll keep looking for another source for the book.

Thanks anyway.
