I think that the last thing we need is another overpriced, slow-selling, niche book like the recent Palawan edition. I don't own a copy and have no plans to acquire one. While I'm sure it is a lovely object (although I'm aware that it is not itself completely error-free), it is simply too expensive for most people. I think the market for a sensibly priced, well researched and well written book will be larger than you suggest, among both Bristol owners and non-owners. The prices currently paid for long out of print books clearly show that there is no shortage of pent-up demand for a new title dealing with the marque.
