Frank,
I thought you were joking but just looked at AMAZON all from America, from $200 used to $458 New :o
If that is worth that, nice little book though it might be, what are copies of La Lancia Worth!

I bought an extra copy of this one as an investment:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lancia-Peter-Garnier/dp/0600349349/ref=sr_1_12?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1386117466&sr=1-12&keywords=la+lancia

£1.44...

Its a great book - highly recommended all the same.  Autocar road tests and articles going back to the 1920s.  Well written, great photos and illustrations, a chunky tome.

Amazing value - you could sell it on eBay for several times that if their current prices are being realised - I paid £10 for a copy and was very happy .

Hi David,
Had mine for a number of years now but I remember paying about £25, a figure that seems to have stuck at, but I agree, bvery well worth having.
