A New CFZ Book

Good news! The publication of the next edition of the bound-issues of the CFZ's in-house magazine is imminent, as Jon D tells us:

"New Horizons, the fourth volume of reprints of Animals & Men, the journal of the Centre for Fortean Zoology is in production now. It will be published in the next few weeks. Although the magazines are reproduced largely in facsimile, formatting errors which were inherent in the original productions (and which have been copied in all reprints to date) have been fixed, so for the first time you can read them the way that they were intended to be read.

"The original versions of these five issues (Spring 1998 to summer 1999) were particularly badly formatted, mainly due to the boys of the CFZ not knowing how to use their new PC, and so it is good to have these errors fixed at last. The volume also includes an essay by Richard Freeman about his early days at the CFZ, and explanatory notes for each volume by Jon Downes, placing them into historical perspective

"It will be £12.50 (no price rise since 1995) plus postage and packing. However, if you pre-order here and pay using paypal at the special low price of a tenner, you will receive it - post free - in early March."
