Re-issue of "Men, Ideas, and Tanks".

You might have come across this rather good book. It can be read on line to a great extent, but some important parts aren't included.

It is offered for sale on t'internet for many hundreds of £. In view of the approaching centenary, I wondered if the publishers might consider a reprint. Don't get too excited. Here is the reply:

Thank you for your message. We are considering reissues of certain classic MUP
texts and I will add this one to the pile for us to look at. 

With best wishes,

So: maybe.

Fingers crossed on this! It's a damn good book, perhaps if more people requested it they would oblige?

It's a free country, at least for the time being. Nothing to stop anyone emailing Ms Brennan and suggesting it. Of course, I couldn't possibly advise anything that might be seen as a concerted campaign.

 Of course not, but if they were aware of an audience for the material, it could help in the decision when they are considering it.
