Searchable version of TEA

The US site for amazon.com has a feature where you can search the text of certain books. Folks on the Writers Forum I occassionally lurk on have found it useful for determining if a book contains useful information on topics they're researching, and thus if it's worth buying or not.
Well, one of the searchable books is TEA. You can go here:
[www.amazon.com]
And scroll down to the green Search box. You can enter something like "piano" and get links to look at every page with the word piano on it.
Useful for quickly tracking down a quote, or double checking something.
