Hi David,

Try Blackwell Book Shops. If you put Blackwell book shop into google it should come up as 2nd or 3rd on the list. Try contacting them as they are really good and can get hold of most books, even out of print.

Good luck

Could be US Google doesn't pick up the European shops until very low down

That's good. I was worried that it would be out of stock considering the problems you were having.

Sorry to report that this book never did turn up. Tried Blackstone, Abe, Alibris, and Bookfinder, also have an e bay watch going but nothing so far. Any further suggestions?

O.K. y'all can stop looking. I found a copy and it now sits at my sister's house waiting for my next trip to the U.K.

Why are you keen to get hold of it?
