That seems more than a little excessive. When I inquired about the book
for possible review in MC&T, I was told it would be 1,090 NOK, which
equals 170 USD (at least today). That would have included shipping to our
reviewer in Denmark, but I can't imagine it costs 80 additional dollars to
ship to the US.

ISTR that Beth Matney, on this list, got a copy a while back. Perhaps it
is cheaper if you order direct from the museum?
