Just arrived on the post is a catalogue from Mclaren books- sales@mclarenbooks.co.uk from Helensburgh, Scotland. It offers a copy of the first Nautical Almanac, for 1767, at �250 (just over US$500), and one for 1771 at �150. Just the sort of thing I would love to have on my own shelves, but way out of my range. There might well be others with deeper pockets than mine, though. George. contact George Huxtable at george@huxtable.u-net.com or at +44 1865 820222 (from UK, 01865 820222) or at 1 Sandy Lane, Southmoor, Abingdon, Oxon OX13 5HX, UK. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to NavList@fer3.com To , send email to NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
