I bought my copy amazon in February 07 after stunling across TMA some time before that while looking for places to take Rex. It only cost me £19.79 with free delivery thrown in so it was a bit of a bargain really.
I must confess to not having read the whole thing as I tend to read the section that relates to places I intend to visit at the time.
I may put the book in the car to read later before setting off to a site but due to its weight and size (it's no pocket guide) I have never carried it with me and therefore remains in very good condition.
The book is querky in its layout and the photography isn't exactly stunning IMHO, but it is very informative and does put a different perspective on things. It was certainly a good starting point for me and gave me the insentive to visit many places a see parts of the country side few get around to visiting.
Yes mine does sit in my bookshelf but it sits proudly with my other stoney books and is read each time I plan a trip somewhere new.
