To purchase, visit your preferred e-book provider. Let's try. <https://www.kobo.com/es/en/ebook/the-oxford-dictionary-of-family-names-of-ireland?sId=d5ce0a05-41ae-4643-bfdc-b49e58bfc824> Seems they have the epub, for 135.40€, 2021 edition. Ohhh, sorry, it is not the same book. The Kobo search is quite imprecise. Thus the Oxford people are wrong, when they say "visit your preferred ebook provider". -- Cheers, Carlos.
