it appears this book is out of stock at Amazon and Chapters-Indigo. Does anyone have any idea of a bookseller's website where I might order it?
TIA,
John

I got my copy from silverprint in london - www.silverprint.co.uk, but i think it was their last copy. you may have to trawl the used book shops, as I think the book is out of print now.

My favorite obscure book source is www.bookfinder.com. Search by author, title, whatever. Usually returns multiple sources for books.

Alibris.com might also be worth a go.

I have previously seen it in Waterstones. Perhaps Ottakars.

It's long out of print. Your only chance is a secondhand copy.

Try www.abe.com. That's a website for English-speaking second hand bookstores (UK, USA, Australia, Canada etc).

Someone wanted a copy of Barry Thornton's Elements the other day. I was in Silverprint's this afternoon and they have ONE copy left, or they did at 2.30pm today. www.silverprint.co.uk will get you their address details.

Wow, I wrote that almost six years ago! I finally got a copy, but darned if I can remember where from. It's a good book and was worth the effort in finding a copy.

I've read Elements in the library, and have a copy of 'Edge of Darkness', and although they both contain some fairly interesting anecdotes, I'm not if I could tell you what they add to the other photography process books that are out there. For example, I don't use 'Edge of Darkness' as a reference as I do 'Way Beyond Monochrome'.
