I often get emails from people trying to track down a copy. The emergence of e-books as a genre now offers a new opportunity to make out-of-print books available once again. I have begun with the texts that have been most often enquired about, and - if there is demand - will add others in due course.<br /> Suggestions for inclusion can be made using the Contact page.<br /> <br /> The project also includes books written by myself or Hilary that have fallen outside the remit of traditional trade publishing, and are not otherwise available.<br /> <br /> Each book can be ordered as an e-book (for Kindle or iPad). For UK purchasers, we do have a small stock of these titles in print form (apart from <em>Language A to Z</em>), which can be ordered using the link on the home page.<br /> <br /> If you were unable to download your book(s) at the time of purchase, use the link below.</p> </div> </div> </div></div><div class="contentView"><div class="htmlCont"><div class="row"> <div class="col-9 col-lg-10 ml-auto"><a href="/GBR/Recover-the-purchase">Recover your purchase(s) here.</a></div> </div> </div></div><div class="contentView"><div class="controlCont"><div id="ContentPlaceHolder1_myFillContent_ctl06_itemsCont" class="row mt-4"><div id="ContentPlaceHolder1_myFillContent_ctl06_ctl00_linkCont" class="baItemCont col-lg-4 col-sm-6 text-center mb-3"> <a class="itemLink" href="/GBR/Book-Detail/?bookId=4"><img class="img-fluid d-block ml-auto mr-auto w-50" src="../Files/Products/Thumbnails/h-5251.jpg" /><span class="itemTitle">A Life Made of Words: the Poetry and Thought of John Bradburne</span><span class="itemDescription d-block small text-secondary">The first in-depth study of the work of the prolific 20th-century missionary poet John Bradburne...</span></a></div> <div id="ContentPlaceHolder1_myFillContent_ctl06_ctl01_linkCont" class="baItemCont col-lg-4 col-sm-6 text-center mb-3"> <a class="itemLink" href="/GBR/Book-Detail/?bookId=21"><img class="img-fluid d-block ml-auto mr-auto w-50" src="../Files/Products/Thumbnails/h-3579.jpg" /><span class="itemTitle">Language A to Z [Student edn]</span><span class="itemDescription d-block small text-secondary">This series of books for schools -
