Felix C Posted 14 June , 2015 Share Posted 14 June , 2015 Please write me if you come across on in your travels at a brick & mortar store. Internet prices are too high and it is not available via Inter-library loan. Need for research. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose a call to one of the libraries listed might be useful? I hope that this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix C Posted 17 June , 2015 Author Share Posted 17 June , 2015 InterLlibrary Loan. None of those Universities will lend to my institution, Florida International University a public institution. Some of the titles above are not circulating items and some of the universities above do not have reciprocity agreements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix C Posted 18 June , 2015 Author Share Posted 18 June , 2015 Links to donnaplay.com where they want my credit card information. I do not trust sites like this. They have complaints from folks who provided the CC info and then they are billed although the site indicates no billing will occur unless one upgrades to Premium Services. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix C Posted 28 December , 2015 Author Share Posted 28 December , 2015 To update this. My brother is in London for a few days and wondering if anyone knows a good bookstore dealing with WW1 books to see if this title may be available. I guess antiquarian would be appropriate as the book is now about 100 years of age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard_Lewis Posted 28 December , 2015 Share Posted 28 December , 2015 I think Charing Cross Road used to be the mecca for second-hand books in London so a look there might be worthwhile though I think if you can't find a sensibly priced copy on the internet you'll be lucky to find one in a London shop. In the UK Hay on Wye is a major book selling town though it is a long way from London. I'm not sure how much of the Hay 'stuff' is online.

seaJane Posted 29 December , 2015 Share Posted 29 December , 2015 How long is he in London for? (I have an idea but it may not work). There are still quite a lot of s/h bookshops in the Cecil Court area of Tottenham Court Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix C Posted 29 December , 2015 Author Share Posted 29 December , 2015 He is tight lipped about dates. He is enroute back to one of our little wars. So he maintains a fair amount of secrecy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaJane Posted 29 December , 2015 Share Posted 29 December , 2015 Ok - the idea would only work if a friend were primed and I don't think I want to drop a request on them with no time-frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
