    1. Lamar County Heritage Book Status

    3. Dear Listowners: As a result of my asking for Rob Cantrell's address, I have been flooded with letters wanting to know what status the Lamar Co. Heritage book is in. As of yesterday, we were completely finished with it, including the indexing, except for Rob's story, which was typeset incorrectly to the point that we need his help in restoring it. As soon as I hear from him, I will mail the last of it in. At that point the entire manuscript goes to what is called bluelines. Bluelines are film copies of the book, that is the final copy of the book. That is sent to David Bice for his review, then the committee, and we are being asked to turn that around in one day (!!!!). This book is 675 pages plus the index (unknown how many pages that will be at this point-in the index), so that will be nothing short of a miracle, but we are going to try. As soon as the publisher receives this from us, the book will print. Everyone pray that all of us can hurriedly do our part to get this done!! Also, a reminder that everyone needs to get their book orders in before publication, and the price increase to $69. Current price is $64.40 postpaid. Send orders to: Heritage of Lamar Co., AL, P.O. Box 216, Kennedy, AL 35574. Merry Christmas All!! Sabra
