Is that print-on-demand?

Talking of Queen Victoria, I've just finished reading:

Darby, Elizabeth; Smith, Nicola (1983).
The Cult of the Prince Consort.
New Haven and London: Yale University Press.
ISBN 0-300-03015-0

A nice book, replete with footnotes detailing the sources used.
Despite the Yale University Press imprint, it is not really academic.
More a survey of the various memorial schemes and so on.
I picked it up for less than £1 at a second-hand book stall.
