Spose i should know but....

Does anyone know if and where I can get a copy of Borlase's books? don't have the finances to buy one of those advertised on the net but wondered if anyone has come across reprints or a site on the web where they might have been published (tried Sacred Texts...no luck).

Am I hoping for too much!

I have a facsimile copy of Naenia Cornubiae; (the cromlechs and tumuli of Cornwall) by Borlase. I got it in a bookshop in Padstow. It was put out by Llanerch press but looks like they may not have any left http://www.llanerchpress.com/index.php?file=book&cat=17&id=189785336X

Doesn't the Cornish Resource Centre in Redruth have copies you could look at? They seemed to have most things published in Cornwall, last time I was there looking for wells info...
