For the benefit of British ex-pats, this is a substantial book which already weighs over the magic kilogramme and would cost a considerable amount to send abroad (to say nothing of foreign VAT . . . ). If you are outside the U.K. and are thinking about buying it, please email us first on enquiries@monkshillbooks.co.uk and we will quote a price for postage.
