never been able to acquire a copy of Sweet's Book (actually, I
bought "Bright's Anglo-Saxon Reader" by mistake; excellent grammar
summaries and reading selection, but not quite the "step-by-step"
grammar I've been looking for).


Hey Justin,

Sweet's A-S Primer is very cheap at the moment second-hand on
amazon.uk [
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0198111789/qid=1135280682/sr
=1-2/ref=sr_1_0_2/026-3840711-5991616 ]. Not quite as cheap at
amazon.com [ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0198111789/103-7310813-
1661416?v=glance&n=283155 ].

Likewise the Reader, pretty cheap second-hand at both sites:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/019811169X/qid=1135281139/sr=1-
1/ref=sr_1_1/103-7310813-1661416?s=books&v=glance&n=283155

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/019811169X/qid=1135281239/sr
=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl/202-3937718-9716605

Both sites allow you to look inside either book, even search for
words in it! There is an unspecified page limit, but I've found it
to be quite generous with other books I've looked at.
