Well if I don't find any more that's an average of one a week for 2015..Can't grumble at that.
No 51 is a hard backed first edition book from 2005 titled "Rough Crossing" Britain, The Slaves and the American revolution signed by Author Simon Schama, CBE Part of the BBC Books collection. Cost me £2.00 from a local charity shop in Blackburn.
