Does anyone out there know if someone is planning to edit/is currently editing Thomas (or John) Leland's Longsword, Earl of Salisbury (1762)? It's a Gothic-cum-romance-cum-historical novel, discussed briefly at Cardiff Corvey and Adam Matthew Publications. There are older reprint editions out and about, but nothing recent and/or reasonably priced; neither Zittaw nor Valancourt appears to have it on the immediate agenda. (Brief interjection: Charles Maturin's The Albigenses! John Moore's Zeluco! I'm in obscure novel heaven!) I read Longsword some years ago, but would like to have a copy. Perhaps this is one of those "if you want it, do it yourself" things...
