There is a freely older readable older version, and some helpful books on Robert's Rules, at archive.org. Also there is a web site (findable with a search) that has an html version (https://robertsrules.com/ https://robertsrules.com/).
ps: In reading some of the above I learned that there are informal ways to manage a meeting, so it doesn't have to be stiff and formal all the time. But the formality can be used as soon as it is needed. (Haven't yet had practice with it though, unlike some other commenters here.)

It seems more focused on getting a larger consensus than just the majority, refining proposals until more people agree, as opposed to coming to a majority decision with efficiency; and it might be suited to larger, even outdoor groups. Yet another approach is that used by councils in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which work well in a setting of unity and general agreement on goals, beliefs, and principles: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/general-handbook/4-leadership-in-the-church-of-jesus-christ?lang=eng#title_number13 https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/general-han...
