Thanks to all. I have managed to find and order a copy of the Randolph book mentioned by IanC.

I admit to feeling a bit nervous about trying to buy anything from the PermaThread: as so many of the great books are out of print - Bronson, most of Child (thanks again Loomis Press) and so forth - I always expect to see the books are not available except for a huge price. I reckon that this supposedly 'Basic' library would cost well over US$50,000 to buy!

BUT: I was wrong - completely wrong. This Randolph book has cost US$23.05 including postage. So IanC is right, always try a search for the recommended books first
