Whilst the Table of Contents whets the appetite, are the volumes themselves accessible?

I bought a full set for around £80 a few years ago and there are some currently available for around £150. You can pick up individual volumes from around £3 a piece though (e.g. here) and well worth a punt.

Ooer! Paul seems to have bought a set of eight volumes long before I met him. I didn’t realise they might be worth silly values.

I’ve seen prices from £70 to £200 for a set when looking today.
