I'm looking forward to reading some of the others. <br /><br />It's generally good to see the PBS getting involved in promoting pamphlets. It's a particularly useful function as it's even more difficult to get pamphlets into bookshops than books - and the margins on selling pamphlets through Amazon are vicious.David Floydhttp://www.brittlestar.org.uknoreply@blogger.com
