Rita, There were a limited number of those published and they have been sold out nearly 20 years... sorry, the only way to get one is to find someone who has one and wants to be rid of it. I don't know anyone...but will be glad to do lookups for you in the one I have. But information was just posted by Kimberly about upcoming books you can get. B. W. is our "storyteller" on Stewart site...I don't have his email right off but if you go "The Tales They Told" on the site you will see lots of his stories, all with his copyright and email addy! You really would enjoy some of those tales anyway! Few years ago I started collecting tales and stories from folks on the list and posting on the site with their copyright and permission ....we "discovered" some REAL talent right in our own backyard! B. W. is one of the best! jan ----- Original Message ----- From: Rita <ritacc@n-jcenter.com> To: <DanvilleCrossing-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 14, 1999 1:25 PM Subject: Re: MORE Rougemont > Thanks Jan.
