The following URL sends an ISBN number to Amazon and gets back a small bit of XML including author, title, and publisher.

http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/xml?Service=AWSECommerceService&AWSAccessKeyId=13529AWJ97PJXSM2K1R2&Operation=ItemLookup&ItemId=1590599659

However, I also want to get small, medium and large graphic and book description.

Problem: I can find no REST URL examples/documention that work, either at Google or when logged into my "AWS Account" at Amazon Associates.

I find a lot of examples from 2003-2005 but they are all out-of-date and give errors, it seems that Amazon's cloud web services have obfuscated their simple REST API documentation for their books.

Can anyone point me to some documentation on how I can get detrailed information about books at Amazon via REST/XML?

Here's what I have tried so far: http://tanguay.info/web/index.php?pg=forays&id=3
