Presumably it was distributed from within the UK somewhere. It’s a good looking book; the cover appears as if it might be a picture of Russell and his kid walking down a country road (I’ll have to ask him). Well chosen fonts, a good layout and obviously meticulous editing make it easy on the eye too. I only wish I’d been able to get a hardback version as this is a book I’d like to last.]]> http://last-straw.net/review-of-great-new-zealand-argument/feed/ 0
