You are very good to warn other listers about these books! But $35.00 would be a great bargin! My Dad (age 412) got hit for $65.00! It's very tempting especially for Senior Citizen family members that want to help you by purchasing these books. They are absolutely nothing more than telephone listings of surnames all over the country! Scares me to think people are spending their hard-earned money on these things! Especially the older folks!
