I'm hoping one of our readers from Australia can locate an address and
perhaps a telephone number for me. There is an out-of-print book that I
need to get a copy of for someone who really needs it. In 1997, I
purchased several copies, gave two to the library, others away to
individuals and kept one for myself. Apparently, I loaned mine to someone
and it has not been returned; it's the only missing one of the "library"
of support books I kept for reference. A search for the ISBN brings up
primarily the pages on which I posted the book information and others who
copied the book information to their own web pages, but nothing to anyone
who has the book (they all have no copies).
Because it's not available through Powells, Barnes & Noble or amazon.com,
the publisher seems to be the last route to finding one (other than the
sheer luck in stumbling into one at a small used book store which is
highly unlikely). The publisher appears to still be in business as I
found a book they published in 1999 (out of the 228 listed on the web when
I searched their name which is where the little location information I
have came from). As you might imagine, the many hours spent on this have
led only to frustration. I was really hoping the publisher might have a
web page; if so, I haven't found it.
Here is the information I have for the publisher (without the book, I
cannot look in the book).
Publisher:
Hill of Content Publishing Company Pty Ltd.
Possible address:
86 Bourke Street
Melbourne, Victoria
Australia
If anyone can be of any help either verifying the information, giving
accurate information or a telephone number, I would very much appreciate
it.
Thank you.

I track down out of print books every once in awhile. I usually
don't have a lot of problems doing that, tho I can't always afford what
people want to charge for them. But, I always know what the book title
is. I couldn't find any mention of that. Do you think that would help?

What would I know about publishers in Oz? I may have
misunderstood the banner at the top of
http://hillofcontent.bizland.com/ - but it seemed reasonably
clear at the time... [-8

Either myself or my son will be in the city this week, let me know
what the book is and perhaps I can chase it for you.
