I tried desperately hard to read this and could see that it promised to be an excellent read, but sadly the print was so small I had to give up. Does anyone know if it is available in large print??

not sure..have you tried Amazon yet? or the library?
good luck in your quest..

There's a large print bookshop online. I'd give you the link but I'd be zapped. Try a search with the words 'large print bookshop uk' in it and you'll find it. Otherwise, as boys said above, a library will probably have copy.
