Haynes Publishing:

That's right! I ordered it directly from Haynes in England...Here's the info:

J.H Haynes & Co.
Sparkford, Nr. Yeovil,
Somerset BA22 7JJ
England
(01963) 440635 Telephone (Customer Service) (01963) 440825 Fax

They take Mastercard, etc. and it came to about $28 US with shipping after the exchange (from Sterling)...Arrived in about a week. It's VERY good!
