A few months back my girlfriend and I went to the Book Loft in Columbus, Ohio. On my way out I came across this book on the Clearance shelf…it was $19.99, marked to $6.99, and bumped down to $2.99. A fantastic find…at least I think so.

Good spot, Michael.

Both Michael McCartney and Joseph McMillan make positive comments about it in their mini-reviews (go here and then search on the page for ‘Zieber’). If you follow the Amazon link by the mini-reviews you will see that it is currently available through Amazon’s associates for $5.91 + shipping so you’ve definitely got a bargain!

I gerw up in the suburbs of Columbus.  I spend untold hours getting lost in the Book Loft - a great shop!

If you don’t necessarily need a hard copy, the Internet Text Archive has e-book and .pdf versions available at:

It turns out that the book there is not, for some reason, Zieber.  However, Google Books does have a copy that can be downloaded in .pdf format at:

An excellent find.  I am looking to extend my heraldry section on my bookshelves, and since the price is right I may try and find a copy of this one.

Killer deal! I`ve found some killer deals on ebay,myself. Got the very same book (PB,listed as "Good") for $1.89 + $3.99 shipping. Copy turned out to be a very nice NF- and not a "Good" at all!

Looks to be interesting but I`ve yet to do more than scan this book
