Piste du Maroc books

Anyone know if the Gandini "Piste du Maroc" books are available in the UK or is it web sales only?

Thanks

I don't see why it's not possible to order any of the Gandini guides through your local 'proper' bookshop. I have ordered a number of foreign books through mine no problem. And you avoid postage charges.

It's the same thing in France : you can only order these guides in very few bookshops , because it's a very little editor and only specialized and/or motivated booksellers .
It's also the same thing for Chris' guIde in France : before buying it , I would prefer to see it in bookshop , but it's impossible certainly for the same reasons .

All sorted. Allegedly. Via the now fully functioning Gandini web site.

Hi,
You can buy the coördinats off the routes in the book at 20 €/book from Gandini.
I have over 300 gps routes off Morocco. You won't get lost in Morocco annymore.
