By the way, for those of you who don't understand what I have been talking about concerning what an ISBN NUMBER is: An ISBN# is called an "International Standard Book Number" which is utilized internationally...a particular number (10 numbers) is specified for each book all over the world. this number is always found on the title page of the book. If you give this book to any book seller or librarian any place in the world, you will be able to obtain that same specific book any where in the world...pretty neat huh?? That's what an ISBN is and if you give this number, which is usually found on the title page of every book, you will have done all the librarian's work for them...they will love you! All one has to do is call a library of the place they want to know something about, get the county's history ISBN (of the book they want or perhaps was recommended to them to learn about so to speak, which will tell historically, economically, and socially what has actually taken place through the development of a specific county, and ask for the ISBN# - Internation Standard Book Number) for the book.) Then go to your local library and put in a request for this book by merely giving the place of the library, phone # if you have it and the place of the library. Giving all of these is helpful to the libraian, but what really pins down the book is the book's ISBN# and YOU HAVE DONE ALL THE librarian's work for her/him...and all you have to do is wait about a week or two for the book you want!
