I had a copy when it first came out,But lost it while moving so like you tried to find another with no luck. I think alot of the problem is the auther passed away so no more copys are being made. It is a great book with alot of info on all types of detecting from gold,coins, and civil war relics. Really a great book!

Makes me wonder what the penalty would be for scanning a copy of the book into a computer, and putting it on disk. If I gave the disks away so there was no profit, is it still illegal? I'm betting yes, but wonder if anyone would come after someone for copyright infringement for making copies of an out of print book, for no profit. I'm not saying I would do such a thing, just seems a shame that the info in the book can't get to the people who want it. Artie

Im not saying I would take one of those illegal copies. But I sure would like one.

I wonder after the author passes away, if there is a time limit on copy rights, or if there was a way to find out who was in control of the copy rights, and if you could get permission to make copies. It would seem that in this computer age, it would be possible to make short runs of books, instead of like 30 years ago when you had to make large runs, to be profitable. Artie

When you go to download,there should be an icon or flag if you're not allowed. Just a thought.

Kevin wrote his book in 1996. US copyright is valid for 20 years if not renewed. So this particular work will enter the public domain in 2016 if not renewed by his estate.
