I recommend buying the volume for your normal latitude; I’ve never needed
volumes 1 & 3 for my limited range in latitude of CN activities. Volumes are
relatively compact and very sturdy. Print is very readable...becoming important
for my eyes.

You can download volumes 2 and 3 for free from the government website at:

Ken, the owner of Celestaire, has made available all three volumes of HO 249 for a free download from his website. (Remember to buy your navigation equipment from Celestaire, I bought my first sextant there in 1977.) But you might like printed copies also available at Celestaire, its easier than printing out you own copies after you download them.
