Oddly, according to the publisher's web site the title is slightly different:

The Seafaring Saint
Sources and Analogues of the Twelfth
Century Voyage of Saint Brendan

Published: August 2000
ISBN: 1-85182-483-9
Price: £45/$65 hbk

Amazon lists it as not yet published, due January '01, with the same title
provided by Half.com and other dealers who offer it (for example, an Irish
bookseller:

<http://www.bibliofind.com/cgi-bin/texis.exe/s/search/dealer.html?id=39e36bb810b
> )

The Internet Bookshop (UK) lists it as apparently available now, with yet a
third variation on the title, _Sources and Analogues of the Twelfth-century
Voyage of Saint Brendan_.

<http://www.bookshop.co.uk/ser/serdsp.asp?shop=1&isbn=1851824839&DB=220>

Neither the U of California nor the British Library seem to have it
catalogued. If it weren't for the Irish dealer listing it under the
_Voyage_ title, I'd guess it might be a matter of different editions with
different titles in the US and the UK and Ireland. As it is, it's an
interesting bibliographical puzzle.
