Many thanks for obtaining "Churchill's Generals" - a pristine copy that I did not expect. In recent years Argosy has obtained several books for me that I had been trying to find for quite a while... Many, many thanks!
The Easton Press Rubens and Dali have just arrived in England - posted on 15th January and arrived here on 17th January. The books are splendid, but how you get out the shipping so quickly I am at a loss to understand! But many thanks
