From the "for what it's worth" department, I wrote the guy about his price. He said it was RARE. Hopefully, the book is still for sale at $20.

I believe that John West mentioned McDowell Publishing and coincidentally, I've just received Sam's latest booklet. He has a section entitled "Order From Sources Listed!". Mr.Thompson's book is in this section. So,here's what it says: "Breckinridge Co.,History & Legend", Thompson, 171p.hard- $20.00 + $1.50 shpg. KY residents add 6% tax. Order from: W.A.Thompson, Dept. M, Rte.1, Box 13, McDaniels, KY 40152" A lot better deal than Ebay's $66+!! ----- Original Message ----- From: Linda Lewis<mailto:seeker54@charter.net> To: KYBRECKI-L@rootsweb.com<mailto:KYBRECKI-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, March 14, 2006 4:40 PM Subject: Re: [KYBRECKI] book on ebay I think the starting bid on ebay was 66 dollars. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gail Bisbey" <ghbisbey85@hotmail.com<mailto:ghbisbey85@hotmail.com>> To: <KYBRECKI-L@rootsweb.com<mailto:KYBRECKI-L@rootsweb.com>> Sent: Tuesday, March 14, 2006 2:29 PM Subject: Re: [KYBRECKI] book on ebay >I know about this book.
