Hi all,

I'm looking for a used copy of The Jasta Pilots: Detailed Listings and Histories, August 1916 - November 1918
by Norman Franks, Rick Duiven, Frank Bailey

There are some for sale in the USA and UK, however I'm in Canada. If anyone has one for sale please let me know by email ([email protected]).

Thanks

Hello MilesC
I recommend you have a look on the abebooks web site. I did a quick check and found 3 copies ranging from £27-£31.I don't know what the postage would be like to where you are though! I am sure others will be able to find you a copy nearer to home!

There's usually a copy listed everyday on eBay, if you're willing to give that a try, although I think they are new copies. Good luck.

The former will be conteste, probably, the latter was listed under the Richthofen category...

The dealer for the second listing, I've noticed, regularly offers Grub Street books for sale, and they appear to be new copies (at least the one I purchased was).

Miles: if you're interested in just one or two pilots you could post your inquiry here and one of the Usual Suspects doubtless will respond with details.

Sorry Rick,

I don't think you get royalties on a used book.
If you did you guys would just continually sell them to each other.
