I am looking for a copy of Pat Smith's book about how to make Mediterranean area terrain for wargame tables. I posted a WTB message in the Market Place forum, but because nobody looks at those pages (my post there was the first ever posting on that Market Place board) I am hoping that Bill will let me post my request here as well. The book is out of print and i owned it once, but I can't find it in my vast Raiders of the Lost Ark style warehouse that I call my game basement. So I am really desperate to find another copy to purchase. Jim |

Have you searched the usual suspects: Amazon, charity sellers, e-Bay? If you know the ISBN, you might get more hits. Cheers! |

I have searched Abe Books and Amazon and eBay to no avail. The publisher was Karawansaray Publishers but they did not assign an ISBN to the book – I am assuming it was self-published. So I guess it comes down to finding someone who has the book and is willing to sell it to me. I will "pay up" for a copy. |

Tom, that's an old blog post and the updates going back to 2021 indicate that the book is sold out and they need at least 100 pre-orders to get it back into production. Thank you anyway for helping with the search. it is appreciated. Jim |

A fellow TMPer made a generous offer to give me his copy of the book. It is much appreciated and I thank everyone on and off-line of this thread for the detective work that you did on my behalf. cheers, Jim |

That's the kind of thing that makes this a great place. |
