Saving pages from google books-

Often I’ve wanted when doing research to save a particular page from a google book ref book, there is no easy way to do this aside from printscreen+paste into paint and save.

Then I figured out at least in firefox you can simply go to tools\>page info\>media and then look through the .png files, you’ll find the google books pages there in .png format one image per page and just save them.
