Yes, the Triumph Cars in America is out of print. No, I have no more copies
for sale. Unfortunately, the brain-dead dollar-grabbers at Motorbooks decided
it was a good idea to throw away several hundred copies without telling me. I
won't comment on what copies sell for on Ebay but I don't share in the
profits!

Seriously, I don't mind saying that its a good, factual account of what
happened with Triumph over here from the point of view of the PR manager. It
is the only book of its kind on that subject AFAIK.
