nigelcave Posted 20 November , 2015 Share Posted 20 November , 2015 True (i.e. limited number of copies), but reprinted by N&M about twenty-five years ago - tho' still not cheap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 20 November , 2015 Share Posted 20 November , 2015 It's free, and, searchable, online. Or is that not quite the same? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigelcave Posted 20 November , 2015 Share Posted 20 November , 2015 Indeed, £36, quite cheap: but I would recommend that anyone who might use it a bit should try and find a hardback copy: I do not think you can buy it in h/bk new any more.

Dust Jacket Collector Posted 20 November , 2015 Share Posted 20 November , 2015 My copy is an original but has had the cover taken off and replaced by one of those ghastly bright green library bindings. Seems to have come from the Royal Hospital Chelsea, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartH Posted 20 November , 2015 Share Posted 20 November , 2015 It's a great pity only New Zealand did a slim similar volume, imagine the fun if we had volumes done by Australia, Canada, Newfoundland , etc, but most of all engine of Empire: India. Good find though. My original is in a slip case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
