    Just had a quick look on Amazon....WOW

    New versions start at $2.400 & second hand from $2,040.

    I will give this one a miss.
    But if you want it.....go for it.

    Thanks Col. My friend had already seen that one and as much as he loves Terry's work decided to give it a miss. He He He.
    Obviously the guy doesn't really wants to sell it.

    Cheers Tony.

    Hi Christos
    From my belief it was only a limited print run and has become popular with collectors of Terry's work also on this forum and others a few years ago there was a lot of references to Wood Dreaming that is what began my quest for it.
    Cheers Tony

    My next question is how much was it when it was first published, because between 300 to 2000 is quite a difference.

    Hi Christos

    I was told when I got my first copy it was a deer book when published and sold for $89.00 mine cost $325 about eight years ago which i was happy to pay. from time to time I have looked on amazon and others the last price I saw was around $600 and not good condition, its worth what someone will pay for it.

    Cheers Tony

    You can set up a book search and get a listing notification here: AbeBooks Official Site – New & Used Books, Textbooks & Rare Books

    I've seen the odd copy of that title in the low hundreds (AUD).

    Last time I spoke with Terry he was also looking for affordable copies.
    Cheers, Ern

    Thanks Ern. I'll send the link to my friend, Terry told me by E/mail that he ended up buying one on Ebay.

    Cheers Tony.
