Aaaargh! Looks like another trip over to Amazon, haven't read it in years, let someone borrow my copy, usual thing happened, meanwhile, might just go to bed with
'The Lord Of The Rings', (ooerr missus), the same person wanted to borrow that at the same time, glad I said they could have it after they returned 'Hobbit' or I'd have lost that as well.
