Does anyone know where I can purchase a new copy of The Political Writings of Richard Cobden, in 2 volumes.  I've been looking for the book(s) and have failed to find anything.  There was something on Amazon, but the quality of the book seemed very bad.

 It's available on Google Books. There are some links to some book sellers there as well.

I always check Alibris - they have several copies, it seems:

Abebooks is very good, too for hard-to-find titles:

Thanks!  I was having trouble finding a good copy of this book.

And (hopefully) to return the favor, I found some interesting stuff on Yves Guyot.  I just purchased three books by Guyot from Barnes and Noble: (1) Boer Politics, (2) Socialistic Fallacies, and (3) Principles of Social Economy.  I spent about $80 for these in paperback. 

Also, Liberty Fund is releasing Condillac's Commerce and Government Considered in Their Mutual Relationship.  I'm really looking forward to this book after reading Hülsmann's review of it:
