Pete Armstrong's The Battle of Dupplin Moor- Where to Buy?
« on: August 16, 2021, 11:49:06 AM »
Hi,

I'm in the UK and desperately trying to buy a copy of Pete Armstrong's The Battle of Dupplin Moor book.

Does anyone have any idea of where I could purchase a copy (please)?

It's for a large project that simply would not be able to proceed without the info.

Thanks.Hopefully my Google Foo is way off and a copy is available from somewhere :)

I dropped the Pete and came up with this thread with a link to pdf.  I don't know anything else about it but you may wish to consider it.  Good luck.

I confess I didn't check it.

This first link should be of some use at least.  It looks to me like someone did their homework.

Dammit it doesn't work.  Go to the bottom of the wiki page on the battle and click there and it will work.

And two family Histories for their take.

Was looking for this a while ago, thought it was looooong out of print. Had no idea L&LS were selling it.

Felt obliged to get a copy, too.

Look on the bright side, you could have already had it on your bookshelf!

Yeah, they're great little publications; Dupplin is the only one I don't have.

i've known Dave for over 20 years though I'm sure I didn't get any special treatment- he is always excellent when it comes to customer service.  8)
