26.6 x 20 cm, 970g, ISBN 0 71538 727 8

See below the description from the dustwrapper flap.

The book was also published in paperback, but our copy is a proper sewn hardback which will open flat – surely essential for a reference book?  All editions are now out of print.

This is a substantial book (its price in 1991, £16, would be £43 in today’s money), and when packed for the post would weigh over a kilogramme.  This would make it expensive to send abroad, so 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.
