'Selkirkshire and The Borders: From 1603 to 1815' by Walter Elliot

Hello,

I was just wondering whether anyone has had a look at this book. At £25, it's not exactly cheap, but most likely provides invaluable insight into the lives of our Selkirk ancestors.

I may be wrong but I think the copies on eBay are Book 1?
