Can anyone point me to the text of Rand's foreword to the 1936 British edition of We The Living on line?

Didn't know she wrote one.  I own a 1947 British printing without an intro.

In the first of the Book TV 50th anniversary talk with Gladstein, Heller and Kelley some of it is quoted, and I'm pretty sure I read the text somewhere before.

Amazon.co.uk has various 1936 copies for sale (at absurd collector's prices)

I gathered these in case they might help:
Hardcover, 1936, ASIN: B0017H0CMG
Paperback, Publisher: New York (1936), ASIN: B0017GK8YY
Paperback, Publisher: The Macmillan Company (1 Jan 1936), ASIN: B0027U3M4C

LOL! Thanks, but if it comes down to it I'll transcribe the partial quote from the Book TV event by hand.

Yeah, I figured that might be the case, since one of them was being offered for about 2,400 British Pounds :-)
