The journal comes out once a year and is more focussed on academic articles or lengthy treatment of a single subject. Recent issues by Jonathan Holt and Pieter and Rita Boogaart are essentially books on the Follies of a particular area or country.
A complete index to the Journals can be downloaded here
All issues are available at £8 each plus postage. If you’d like to buy any, please send a message to the webmaster via the contact form and I’ll get back to you with a total price.
