The manual you are looking for is green, all of the others do little goofy effects but will not give you the quest item.
The bad books remind me of Evil Dead when Ash opened the wrong ones.

Description
The local demons seem to get quite a kick out of stealing all of our arcane manuals. I highly doubt most of them can even read, so they're probably doing it just to spite us. I could care less about most of the books they've taken, but they took an Abjurer's Manual that I'm going to need if there's any hope of keeping apprentices like you alive amidst Xylem's "trials." Find the demons at the Lagash Encampment to the southeast and retrieve the Abjurer's Manual. That's all. Scoot.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Shear Will
I'd be amazing! At archmagery. Amazing! He won't even talk to me because I don't have a stupid robe and hat. Pffft. The most amazing archmage this land has ever seen can't just have any robe and hat. I need to show him that I'm something special, and I know just how to do it.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Trouble Under Foot
Look at you. Doing errands. Quite responsible of you. You're moving up up up, you are... up up! There be demons ahead! Demons of many unpleasant kinds. Demons that would quite like your innards! Legash demons of a southeasternly heading! But do not worry.
