Barfieldian Interlude

(This is mostly for [livejournal.com profile] plura, who will be as astonished as I.)

How do I not own a copy of Poetic Diction? I've read sections and was sure I owned it!

I did find History of English Words, but no Poetic Diction for me. And unlike Saving the Appearances, which is actually quite easy to find on alibris for under $10, there are no extremely cheap second hand copies of Poetic Diction currently available.

Now off to troll the internet bookshops in hopes of finding one that a) has the book I want, b) for a price I like, and c) accepts paypal.
