Found a copy of this in my local public library. Quite a good read 
but I don't think it's the kind of book I would buy. The Leica books 
I own consist of

Leica Manual - Morgan & Lester 1951
Basic Leica Technique - Bomback 1954
The Leica Way - Matheson 1969
The Leica and the Leica System - Scheerer 1962
The Leica and the Leicaflex - Scheerer & Makovec 1962
The Leica Book - Kisselbach 1967
The Leicaflex Book - Kisselbach 1969
Leitz General Catalogue - October 1977
Leica & Leicaflex Lenses - Rogliatti 1978
Leica-R4 Reflex Manual - Kisselbach 1981
Applied Leica Technique - Osterloh 1985
Handbook of the Leica System - May 1987
Leica M The Advanced School of Photography - Osterloh 1987 
Leica Reflex Practice R5 To R3 - Matheson 1989
Leica Reflex Photography - Bower 1991 
Leica M6 Rangefinder Practice - Matheson 1993
Leica Lens Practice - Laney 1993
Leica M Photography - Bower 1995
+ sundry Hove reprints of Leica instruction manuals

Most of these bought second-hand. I try to find these kind of books 
in ordinary SH book shops as they are a lot cheaper than specialist 
photo dealers.
