Dear Bh. Nyanatusita,

I have copied and pasted below the book information from the MBC website. It
would appear that it is a hard cover edition (note the "hc"). I'm currently
in contact with MBC concerning my order of some Pali grammatical texts
published by the Burmese government. I will try and find out more about
Duroiselle's grammar. I agree that it is rather expensive but if it's the
original 1906 printing then I suppose it's not so bad for a rare book.

I learned over the weekend from a list-member who just spent a week in
Yangon that the Kaccaayanabyaakara.na published by the government can be
bought over the counter at the Ministry of Religion bookstore for 1000 kyats
(about 75 cents). However, for those who, like me, order via the internet
from MBC the price is $10 plus shipping.

Best wishes,
Jim
