That's interesting. Someone may be able to give some insight into the 
policy questions behind reprinting.

Another book by Wood - "Is This Theosophy?" was also a very very rare book 
- I have seen only two copies in the last four decades - It not reprinted 
for a long time till Kessinger reprinted it some time ago.
