I'd be interested, but the final decision would come down to the book itself.
The chapters shown look like more of an "adventures in collecting" sort of thing, which I like if it's well done.
something with some depth and entertaining to read at a decent price point works for me. Or extremely in depth at whatever price. Interestingly enough at least a few of the more price guide like books about stamps have migrated to an online book. interesting progression, great catalog at $100 from the authors, no update expected- update expected, to be discounted for the original buyers - Updates sent electronically but free to original buyers - Catalog online and partly updated on occasion. Not so hot for those of us who prefer actual books, and spent the money, but overall better for a segment of the stamp hobby. (Specifically those who collect worldwith postage meter imprints- yeah, those machine printed usually reddish things that pay postage on your bills etc. Some of us actually collect them.) Talk about short sales expectations
