Dang! With shipping it's nearly $104 for me. That's too rich for my blood. Wish they would do an ebook version for us po' folk.

They offer free shipping for orders over 180, so if you can find two more friends to order together, you're done. Or, if you trust that it will not be reprinted in the future, it could be a good investment to get two additional volumes. The old Hunnicut's book on Sherman got incredible prices before reprinted a few years ago. And "Duel in the Mist" volume 1 is selling well over 250$...
