Now out of print. American booksellers tend to charge ridiculous prices for books on British culture, and one bookseller has a copy for sale which he describes as ‘new’ for £2,876.96 – plus postage of course . .

Beware – this is a very large and heavy book and would cost a fortune to send abroad.  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.
