From source:
<div id="pageBack" style="position:relative; top: -938; z-index:1;
height:937; width:600" class="readerImage">
<img
src="http://lookinside2-images.amazon.com/Qffs+v35lepVAssn4vjwVU61JjTOjzPDetM3hXxYjFZinStxPbVqEn+3DFP1ensm";
width="600" name="si_pageUnder" height="937" border="0" />
That '<img' is your page.
Peace.
