airborne medic is on a distinguished road
WH Smiths 3 for 2 offer!!!!!

Realise this is a bit short notice but just seen that our major high street bookshop (LOL) is offering 3 for 2 including any books in their internet shop......
I've always fancied getting the After the Battle book on Berlin which is on there at £44.95....does anyone want to order a copy through me????.....we could buy 3 copies for £89.90 it's free delivery to one address and I'd be willing to split postage costs three ways...so potential three of us could get this book for about £35 each.....

Only problem is this offer ends 1000 Monday 7th July 2008......

I have just spent a few pence (okay pounds!)! and ordered 6 books. (I did start with 15 but had to reduce that before the wife found out!)

Also found a number of Airborne books I didn't know about, a couple on Arnhem that have recently/ not yet been published

Can I put the titles up with ISBNs or is that a no no?

Regards to all

Andy

Thanks for that

The two I found were

A Magnificient Disaster by David Bennett ISBN 9781932023854 (out now)

Glider Pilots at Arnhem by M L Peters ISBN 9781844157631 (due out 24/7/08)

Reasonable prices too but I can't remember them! as I didnt write them down (DOH!)
