Can't be the same book. I don't have that kind of luck. I will, however do some more intense research later on today.
That £125.00 book, must be a signed first edition or something. I wonder if the author is still alive? That might have something to do with it.
I wouldn't be surprised James.
I'm a collector of books about the Hessians in the Rev War (amongst other interests) and at our local used book shop I scored a first edition copy of Ewalds Jäger Journal for $20. I had to suppress my giddiness as I walked up to the counter so the book dealer didn't get suspicious (said book in new condition, as this one is, easily goes for $250 to $300).
It's amazing what jewels can be found at used book shops
