In Strong Women Stay Young, you state that the chair you use should be such that your feet barely touch the floor. And then you go on to say that, if you are taller (which I am) Chapter 8 will cover how to adapt this situation. I have read and re-read Chapter 8 and cannot locate your suggestions of what to do when seated in the chair so that my legs are not bent under the chair.

You are right - we made a mistake! Fortunately, you and other alert readers caught it, so we've corrected the problem in later printings of the book.

Here are two suggestions: First, you could elevate your legs by rolling up a towel and placing it under your knees as you do the exercise. If that doesn't help, purchase a firm foam cushion to raise the chair seat; you can use a towel with the cushion. And of course, you could buy a new and higher chair.
