Susan, have you tried looking for the book on Half.com or bidding on Ebay ? The only reason I mention this as I was on both sites last night, and did see that The Tales of the Alhambra by Washington Irving was available. Some of the sellers mentioned in their advertisements that the books were purchased at the Alhambra, although not all of them had hard cover books, and none of them were first editions (170 years old).

Anyway, its just a thought. However, I'll be in Spain in March and will be going to the Alhambra, so if your friend wants to wait I can pick her up a leather-bound copy.
