Yep, Reach For The Sky was a favorite in my family when I was growing up, it was also made into a film starring Kennth More?
The othe book that grabbed our attention at he time was Fly for your Life, the story of Robert Stanford Tuck.
However, as for your question Tony, wild horses would not seperate me from a copy signed in my presence by DB himself.
I have a copy of "Half Safe, Across the Atlantic by Jeep" signed (by both Ben and Elinore Carlin) when they got the Jeep to Melbourne in '57, I was happy to pay $20.00 for it, so $$$$ wise, your book may not be worth selling anyway.
