See below the description from the dustwrapper flap. 

The publisher’s website diverts you to the www.hive.co.uk website, which states the book is ‘out of stock’, and says they are unable to give an estimated delivery date for the product. We take this to mean that the Phillimore edition is out of print.

The book is also offered, in paperback, by one of those American print-on-demand publishers, but their edition is scanned from a copy of the original 1904 edition in the University of California, and the photographs are not well reproduced.

This is a more substantial book than it might appear – it weighs over a kilogramme – as it uses glazed paper to better reproduce the photographs.  The book would cost a good deal 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.
