Osprey's in general are well priced at Books Etc.

On another plus note: my copy of Duel in the Sun has been shipped. Yeah!

Edit 24th Feb
Book has arrived at a great discounted price. (Note, Amazon have not released the book yet.)

Now to find time during the day to read through it.

How is the book packaged and did it arrive in good conditio?. I'm thinking of ordering but stay in South Africa and was wondering if they are package well enough for the trip to SA.

It was in a cardboard envelope and arrive in perfect condition here in the UK.

However, having lived in SA for several years, I doubt it would survive the harsh handling by SA post (if it even got delivered).

Was it in bubble rap or just cardboard or is the cardboard lined? The reason I ask is I have received books from other suppliers that were also in a cardboard envelope and the book slid around in the inside damaging the cover.

Just a plain cardboard envelope (just like small books from Amazon come in), but a tight fit.

Thanks AfricanAl

But no matter where I order it from it will have to go through the SA post, or do you know of alternate ways?
