Bucky on Einstein

[Robin]

Does anybody here have a copy of the book "The Private Albert Einstein" by Peter A Bucky?

I am having a debate with someone in another forum who insists that atheists who quote this book online are deliberately changing one paragraph to make it seem that Einstein was not a theist.

They are insisting that
In essence, my religion consists of a humble admiration for this illimitable superior spirit that reveals itself in the slight details that we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble minds .
in the actual text of the book reads:
My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble minds. That deeply emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God.
I have noted that the book was originally in German and there is no distinction between "himself/itself" in the German text. But the online quoted part of the text does not carry the extra sentence in English or in German.

But without seeing the actual book (not in any library I have access to) I can't actually prove this wrong. I don't want to have to buy the book for one sentence.

Anybody able to help me out?

I can do it without reading the book. Einstein said this:

"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it."

He said it in a letter he wrote in 1954 that was reprinted in this book:

Good luck. Einstein would be rolling in his grave if he knew people were still trying to call him a theist.
