Be careful what you pay guys, HUGE mark-ups are being put on these books by GREEDY people.
Non of these books should cost more than £20 to £40 (30 to 60 bucks i think)
but get this.
I recently wrote to the contact email address on Mr Cherniaks website to inquire about a new copy of the 2nd book in normal soft-cover version (they also have hard cover copies). When i originally purchased it it was £20 in about 1990.
I almost spat my tea out when i got a reply quoting me $395 !!! What a complete rip off. Yea they are great books, especially the 1st, but come on, that's like £200 for something that should be £30.
There are other places to get these books though at the right price. In the uk grow-shops and seed company's often keep a stock from what i've seen as well as quite a few on-line book stores.

These books were published long ago ... there are virtually no " first edition " copies available ... what was bought - people love and hold on to .. they look at these books often ... show them to their friends .. and are passed up thru generations
What little is available for sale - are few .. first editions ... collectibles .. from private sellers ... and expensive
Fact is - without the re-prints we are about to do ... its very, very difficult to find these books ... especially - all 3 ... and ... if you can find any at all .. it will be expensive - unless you get very lucky
For "The Great Book of Hash" - three books were published - Book I, Book II, and Book III
First editions of Book I and II are pretty much gone ... LC may have a few lying around ... but they are quite expensive .. or check online resellers of books/rare books - and see for yourself
Book III is around in very limited quantities .. hardcover only ... cost - forgive me for guessing .. I want to say US $120 or so
The books are in great demand
Thus the re-prints
The new edition of TGBOH Book I - should cost approx US $60
We are re-printing ... Book I ... Launch October 24, 2009 ... and soon after we will re-print Book II ... then Book III
LC will not stop there - he is working on quite a few fun and interesting canna related books and products ... that will be available in the future
Great fun ahead
Great vibes
Keep it concentrated
