green book

I see in the WTN the John Conde has passed on. That's a shame. He wrote a great book on Hudsons that we (in our family) refer to as "The Green Book", because it's cover is green. My Dad has a copy and I would like to have one too. Does anyone know where I might find one, preferably new?

  • If you're looking for new, Amazon.com or eBay may be your best bet.

    if you are looking for "the cars that hudson built" by conde, that book has been out of print for some time. once in a while on E-bay or check out of print book sellers. i looked for a year before i found a copy i could afford. i just checked world wide book search. amazon has 1 copy at $65, ABEBOOKS has three starting at $81.

    My wife found me one last year out of Australia, but that's about the going rate.
  • You can find them on ebay semi-regularly. Also, the prices on this particular book are way down compared to what they were a year ago at this time. I'd suspect the economy, etc.



    I like www.abebooks.com too. Look on Amazon too. With these three websites, you're bound to find a half dozen or so. Good luck ever finding a brand new copy, if that's important to you.
