USD 35 from Amazon.com (it's a fairly recent publication, I think). I don't think it's been published in the UK, but there was North-American-based reseller on Amazon.co.uk that ships it to the UK for about the same price -- which is emminently reasonably by UK standards!
I had been interested in making a sort of alternate Catalany language to to go along with an alternate Latin, but had been having trouble finding historical grammars that dealt with VL>Catalan sound changes (a quest complicated by my rather half-assed command of Spanish!). But Old Occitan is pretty similar, and actually perhaps a better model for what I want, so this looks like it could be a very handy resource for me.
