It's a shot in the dark but if anyone can help I'll be very grateful I'm urgently looking for a book for some research I'm doing. It's by I M Stead entitled Iron Age Cemeteries in East Yorkshire : excavations at Burton Fleming, Rudston, Garton-on-the-Wolds and Kirkburn. Does anyone know of a copy I can buy, beg or borrow? I've tried all my usual sources and can't find a copy anywhere.

Thanks.

Many thanks John. Weirdly I was on that site a couple of days ago and couldn't find it. Hey, mudcatters always come up with the goods.

Ah, just realised why I couldn't find it before - when I clicked through to buy it, it said that it was unavailable. Damn. Back to the drawingboard.

Thanks folks - Abebooks and Bookfinder are resources I use all the time - unfortunately they haven't got the specific book I want.

Managed to find an electronic copy at the British Library. Better than nothing.

Hyacinth Bucket had a copy a few years back. You don't plan on climbing trees to look for "lumps and depressions", do you?
