Before anyone copies anything from England's Sons and sends it to anyone else and says so publicly, you should be aware that there is such a thing as copyright. Quoting a sentence or even a paragraph is of course perfectly acceptable; I would have no quarrel with that. Copying a whole section of the book without my permission would of course be an infringement of copyright. So that you are clear, the price of the book covers the cost of publication; I am not interested in making money out of it. But I do allow them to be sold through the Regimental Museum which adds a pound or two to the cost so that the museum can add to its income. I am very happy that that is the case and have this arrangement with other publications and museums. I'm sure Ciscokid will find England's Sons useful in a variety of ways and well worth the purchase. He'll also have the pleasure of knowing that he is helping the museum too.

Hi
I was only after the paragraph describing the experience of these fellows, if you can elaborate on their experience please share it. If they ever made a remake of the film this would be an amazing addition.

SaulDavid "Depends what you define as a book. A4 Paper bound with plastic binder." Wrong. Depends what you define as copyright. Note also that I wanted to keep the cost as low as possible so that it was affordable and accessible. I also wanted it in a format that I could continually update as necessary with a latest edition. A 'normal' book would not allow that. The paper is good quality and the plastic cover gives at least some protection. Note also that I'm only protecting my work and, as I said, I have no quarrel with short quotations or paras being used in this way.

Fair one - I must admit that when I first opened the book I was disappointed, it reminded me of my Uni assignments.. However after reading the accounts of some alleged survivors it seems worth every penny.
It seems that you update it every so often, would you think it's fair that anyone who bought this would have access to the updates? Even just as a downloadable pdf?
