impala59 Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 As Title, by Walter Claude Snyder, prefer 2nd edition (1999) Condition not too important, not looking for collector quality, but complete and readable for research purposes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.C Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Oowch. £250 plus postage! Or a signed 1st edition @ $330.00! I'll keep an eye out at 2nd hand bookshops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impala59 Posted July 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Ouch indeed! I have in fact spoken to the author who is also the publisher and he has no interest in a re-print or E version. Unfortunately he also gets nothing from the grossly inflated prices that booksellers are asking. I keep hoping though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impala59 Posted July 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 Well I am rarely speechless, but today, two of my daughters announced that they had found a copy of this book in Italy and that it was on its way to me for my birthday. They only told me so that I did not buy one elsewhere! I must confess to have almost given up due to the rarity and cost. How great to have such caring kids! They also apparently got a great deal too, negotiating the price down! I don't even remember telling them the title! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
