Cheers all ! I have ordered and received some of the books you suggested I just received an email though telling me the following book is no longer available: "The Quiet Operator: Special Forces Signallers Extraordinary - The Story of Major L.R.D.Willmott" Regards Andy Andy I just looked on AbeBooks Official Site - New & Secondhand Books, New &Used Textbooks, Rare & Out of Print Books typed in the title The Quiet Operator and there are four copies in the UK ranging from £4.93 to £11.00
Hello Drew, Just found this one. It is a reprint of a 1950 book. The price is a bit steep though! MLRS Books Limited: Reprints of military history source materials, especially from World War II - Signal Communications
Drew, Another one for you although I think the chances of finding a copy are VERY slim ........... Does that mean you dont have a copy
No, I don't have a copy and as I told Drew, the chances of getting one are almost zero . Still, we live in hope!
Just too late to warn you Paul, but perhaps you were lucky: eBay UK Item Bid History So now I know there are at least two (and one was very expensive)
No, I don't have a copy and as I told Drew, the chances of getting one are almost zero . Still, we live in hope! looks like hope sprung eternal
Hello mate, This particular book is a bit of an enigma. As far as I know there have been SIX different versions printed since its release in 1998. 5 of them have been paperback/cardcover editions and one, allegedly, is a hardback. Four of the paperbacks plus the 'hardback' have the same ISBN number 0953329208 . The most recent version (to my knowledge) is also paperback and has the ISBN number 1905200099. Over the years I have owned all the versions but I have NEVER seen a hardback. I currently have two versions, a 1998 1st edition (paperback) and the 'latest' 2005 edition, also paperback. Below are all the versions I know of with their respective ISBN numbers. I hope this helps . All the best.......... I have the hardback version of this book. ISBN is indeed 0953329208, printed in 2002.
