John,

For the volumes that have sold out would it be worth organising 'print on demand' for them. It's not a technology I was aware of until I ordered a copy of William H Longyard's 'Learning the English Wheel', I expected to be sent a copy from the US but instead was informed that a copy would be printed on demand for me at Lightning Source UK Ltd Milton Keynes in the UK and a few days later it arrived and I ordered the hard cover option as it was only slightly more than the soft cover option. I was impressed with the quality, I would say equal to the Tim Barton series which I already had, and colour photos. Cost was similar to the Tim Barton volumes also.

Thanks for the heads-up, John. Much appreciated. Lane replied quickly to my inquiry and my last two books are on the way.

No, there is no #8. I saw the cover of #8 pictured so asked to purchase a copy when I bought #6 & #7 a couple of days ago. Lane said that there is no #8 and that she doubts it will ever be written.

Default Print on demand

Hi DavidB - we'll look into it. In the past we had to order 25 or more to get printing and shipping costs down. Likely your suggestion is valid, but I think the price may be prohibitive.

Hi Dan Todorow - No, if you look back through the threads related to Timothy Barton's death you'll find a lot of information. We were able to acquire boxes of his materials, but nothing digital. Pure speculation here, but as there may have been liability for collecting funds and not sending books, I think the family just wanted the issues to go away.

From the materials we got from the family Bill Longyard was able to write #7, but there was nothing to let us know what was supposed to be in #8.
