Hi Gary

The ISBN you've given is for the Norm & Andrew Mort book published by Veloce back in 2008 and I see from their website it's now marked down at £7.50. Its quite limited in scope, but it has got lots of very nice pictures of some very unusual recently restored vehicles and in my opinion is well-worth the asking price.

Looks like a good book, especially at that price. Pity it's out of stock.

Dear Gary

I think you may find that the book is out of print and is now only available as an electronic download for reading on an Ipad, Kindle or similar machine, that is why it is at a cheaper price.

Check for your self on the Veloce web site

Veloce does not seem to have anything to do with the CONTENT of these books.
They will pretty much publish anything they are presented with if they think it will sell.
This "Micro Trucks" book is basically a look at the vehicles in one person's collection in Toronto, Canada.
It is not a bad book, but I think there are too many images of people loading pumpkins onto the Isocarro and children playing next to the vehicles.

It is sort of in the same vein as the Sparrow "Bubblecars and Microcars Family Album" books.
