Anatomy of the Ship: Dreadnought

Post by Joe Meredith »

Hi Folks
I have a hankering to build Trumpeters Dreadnought and would also like to get the AOTS book; I think the cheapest I've seen it (Amazon Marketplace) is �53...is that about par for the book? In my experience some of those marketplace prices are way off, but I wouldn't know where else to search out the book.
Hope somebody can help.

Bookfinder shows that they are typically much more expensive (the only cheap one is for a shop that doesn't stock the item). So, yes, I think that price is fair and the book is certainly worth it.
