Does every book need an ISBN?

I bought one last week that has no ISBN and the previous edition of the same book had no ISBN. I have others without one.

I think Its the case of if you want the book listed with the British Library but its been some years so I cant honestly remember the full details now . . .

I just looked up the older of the two books that I mentioned, in the British Library catalogue. It is listed and still no ISBN.

I have a new version already written, it was nearly 400 pages but i have reduced it to 230 odd. It covers the period 1920_1945. There is also another covering up to 1920 but this one is not quite finished. However the 1920 to 45 version needs proof reading and there lies the problem.
You can tell a builder from an archaeologist by the size of his trowel. Mine is a small one!

After a couple of offers to carry our proof reading, the new version will be out in a few months.

Does anyone on here want to buy my spare copy of "British Military Airfield Architecture"? Only £179, and I'll stand the postage. (Just been on Amazon. Going for £180 there!) Who designs those algorithms!?

Ossington, you might want to retract your sale, as what is on offer is a pdf down load, not a hard copy book, although it is vastly superior to the original book.

That's great news. Any idea of timescale?
I've started saving me pennies already.
