Winged Victory by VM Yeates is about as hard to come by a book as any I have searched for. Has anyone hear read it? Everything I have heard about this book is highly positive and hence, must have a copy. Any leads would be appreciated.

Try
this Amazon site. You may have to wait and pay a bit more, since it's out of print, but this is the best reprint edition.

PS
Never pass an old book store. I was in Detroit at John King Books, one of the greats, and found a very good hardcover cover of Derek Robinson's Hornet's Sting for $3.00.

I've been looking for Winged Victory for months. No luck with Amazon.com. If you should be blessed with finding more than one copy, I would be overjoyed if you would let me know at: PfalzPflyer@netscape.net

Good luck!

Chris: You might try Bookfinder.com. They presently list three copies of "Winged Victory, one for $10.00, One for $35.00 (Almark and Co., Ont, Ca. 905-764-2665), and one for $70.00 listed by Alibris which is a kind of central clearing house for books. Hope this helps.

If you live in the UK I can get you a copy today.I bought the hardback version last weekend at RAF Duxford which makes redundant my paperback copy.

This
site is the best for finding used books. My quick perusal shows the two sources already mentioned. I do recommend bookmarking this site, as its a goldmine for book searches.

VBR,

John
