It's definitely available from amazon.com.au if you want to VPN it:

	https://www.amazon.com.au/Tower-at-Stony-Wood-ebook/dp/B015DSVP1Q

also, you can read it for free online from

	https://archive.org/details/toweratstonywood0000mcki

if you create an account, and if nobody else is reading it at the time.
