Mysterious Alan Raven & John Roberts Book!!!

Post by Laurence Batchelor »

Hi guys I've had this book sat on wish list on amazon for a while but I've never actually seen one for sale or even a picture of one.

I think I should bring your attention to it because many of you like might me might be interested in obtaining a copy.

Does anyone out there have a copy? and can tell me what it contains and would you be kind enough to post a picture of the front cover?

What interests me the most are the authors Alan Raven & John Roberts who we all know and love but this is the only published work I don't have by either author.

If an unfriendly power had attempted to impose on America the mediocre educational performance that exists today, we might well have viewed it as an act of war.

Hey, Japanese and Taiwanese parliments must also be given their dues. I am sure there are others as well.

Are you sure that the book that you are refering to is World War ONE?

Werner I have the book you are talking about which I've posted a picture of in the British Battleships Reference list Mk2 on this very site! It is not that book with is A3 in size and has a white cover with red writing on the cover and is a large collection of their plans for WW2 warships.

Perhaps Mr Raven you would be most helpful if you could describe this book you co-authored and also show or email a picture?

That way I would know if it were worth my while pursueing one on the 2nd hand market as its your only book I dont have!
