Nice find that Alex. His books and the interest in them and their value has baffled me a bit in recent years. I think he has written some really nice books that are fascinating and quite classy. With his obvious family connection there should be a little more interest in him, and his work. For a few years now his signed books have struggled to sell on ebay with some selling for pennies. The price seems to be getting better, and sales are now hitting the tenner mark. I personally think they should be work a lot more, but it is a fickle market.
