The book concerned is non-fiction -- hence the desirability of being able to cite it with page references. It is out of print, but there is likely to be a renewed interest in it when a new book that is now in preparation is published (in print and ebook form).
I can live without a publicly available map of pagination information. I am prepared to manually identify page starts in the text by comparing with the out-of-print paper version. Time-consuming maybe, but it would be worth it to me. Is there any way of inserting that information into an APNX file? Of course, if Amazon would tell us how to do it, that would be preferable, but they haven't seen fit to ...
Any help greatly appreciated.

The data can be placed in the toc.ncx file. See the wiki for details on apnx and ncx.
