I'm trying to find a copy of this book "Mother and Sun: Cornish Fogou" by Ian McNeil Cooke. The price through Amazon is a staggering £150! I found a few websites that mention it and say it's available locally in Cornwall but doesn't seem to be available to buy anywhere. I'm really ken to get hold of a copy of it and wondered if any one here might have any suggestions or be able to help?

You're very unlikely to find a copy.. there's only a limited edition of a 1000 so I doubt you'll have much luck from the men an tol studio...
I should know, having a copy stolen off me on ebay :(
