In all fairness (and contra what I wrote yesterday), I have to say
that I just found the book for sale on Amazon UK ( http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hurdy-gurdy-Method-Doreen-Muskett/dp/0946993076
), but it was not the first hit on Amazon for some reason and with
whatever search string I used yesterday it didn't even show up. On the
US pages, however, it is listed as "unavailable." So I have answered
my own question about availability, but I can see why people might
have trouble finding it.
Michael, electronic distribution would help alleviate the problem of
finding it and, if done right, would bring back a higher percentage
return on the cost to you and your wife since you wouldn't be involved
in printing, mailing, etc. Just something to consider.

It has come to my attention that at least one copy of our Hurdy-gurdy

of buying a copy reduces the income of the author (my wife) and the

thing to do and amounts to theft, which is why copying is illegal. I
think anyone who uses such a copy at a festival or workshop should be
banned. I would add an Arabic curse: May his crotch be infested with
fleas and may his arms be too short to scratch.
I had been toying with the idea of making copies post free to
students,
but this toy is now back in the cupboard.
