Hi Aaron, welcome to the forums! Don't worry about asking silly questions, we all have to start somewhere, and everyone's pretty friendly around here![]()
To answer your question, I think what you would have to do is to buy the digital version and the digital version of the book - since it's intellectual property, you'd have to purchase it from the creators, Ernie and Erica. Honestly, if it were me, I'd sooner pay for expedited shipping than buy both the digital and physical versions - you may be throwing away money on shipping, but if your reasoning is that you want to study it asap, I would just spring for faster delivery![]()
I hope that helps, and I definitely suggest started a thread in the rocket mass heater forum to document your progress and ask for feedback from the community, once you get started. You can also leave a review of the book here in this thread to help other people decide if they want to buy it.

Here are a thread I found that address your question of using external air in a RMH. At the end is a video Paul put out discussing this with some other rocketeers.
