Hey Nick are they intending to print the book as you originally supplied it to the first publishers or have you been able to take advantage of the situation to write a more expansive detailed book?

Hi Alex, It will be published as I originally wrote it for the "Shires" series, The publishers Osprey were bought out by Bloomsbury publishing along with the Shires series catalogue. So the book has to fit in with the existing shires series books which are all 64 pages long.
