Hi there ORAC. I'm the one that sent you the private message. Unfortunately I would not be able to pick up any of the books, although there are several that I am interested in. I realise that posting them across the country is a hassle, and if you'd rather not bother then I understand completely. However I have had a quick look at Royal Mail's parcel delivery options (
http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/j...mediaId=400031) and it seems postage would be in the region of £7-£10, assuming the books were all placed in a box together.
If you were willing to post the books, I will happily send you a cheque to cover the cost of postage - this will allow you to make the charitable donation of your own accord (or to put it into pints if you wish).
I have listed the books that I would like;
Suicide Squads - Axis and Allied Special Attack Weapons of WWII: Their Development and Missions.
Overlord - D-Day and Normandy 1944
Bomber Barons
The Last Battle
The Interrogator - The Story of Hanns Schaff
I Flew for the Fuhrer
Right of the Line - The Royal Air Force in the European War 1939-1945
Thunder & Lightning - The RAF in the Gulf
RAF Fighter Command 1936-1968
Green Balls - The Adventures of a Night Bomber
Once again I understand if you'd rather not post the books. In the case that you accept, we'll exchange addresses via private message.
Thank you very much.
