Hi Bluedongle,

Here in the UK it is classed not as 'rare', but 'hard to find'. I have seen copies on sale for £50, without a dust jacket. It is now out of copyright and is available as digital download. I have a digital copy myself.

All that having been said, it is a wonderful book. It is accurate (for the time) and a reasonably good reference material. Not so hot for threadcount, but just what you need for a quick check to see the differences between, say, MacKenzie and MacLeod.

A great book and I am jealous.

Regards

Chas
