Hi! Thanks for the info. I've really wanted to read Ibn Batuta for a while now so perhaps this is the golden opportunity to finally get a PG version in motion. So, does anybody have any experience ordering copies of whole books from the British Library? I'd love to do it (obviously, depending on price) if it's at all possible :-) Cheers, Holden
