Joe-
That is a month or two sooner than I realized they were shipping them. Good to know!
I think you'll like the Boothroyd book very much. Tell us when it arrives. I've seen printings by both Crown and Bonanza.
It's a big book; don't drop it on your toe!
You got a swell price, too.
BTW, the author looked nothing like the actor who played him in the movie version of, "Dr. No." That role was actually fictional, although Fleming used his friend's name for the character. I don't think Boothroyd actually worked for MI-6/SIS. Besides his gun books, he was a TV writer.
