To the best of my knowledge, at the present time:

The copyright owner (Mrs. Harriet Noble, Julian's widow) has granted 
permission for a digitized version of the book to be made publicly 
available on the internet.

At least one digitized version of the book exists.  There may well be 
more.

No digitized version has been made available on a publicly available site.

My own opinion is that it would be a benefit to the Forth community if a 
copy could be chosen and placed on a site that is likely to persist into 
the foreseeable future.
[Of course that might cause the Amazon price to crash. ;-) ]

regards to all   cgm
