Hi Patrick,
Try amazon.com's out of print book search service. I've turned up a few
obscure out of print books that way. You will need a credit card (or
someone with one) to initiate the search, and you may not get it time
for Santa to include it in your stocking, but it may be worth a try.....
Best regards, Marc Bradshaw
