    1. Book Recommendation
    2. I just wrote to Mr.Edgar Howard recommending a book and he suggests that it would be good to post the message to the List. So here goes: "Mr. Howard: I just read your message of about an hour ago about "Benge". I want to read it. I also would like to recommend a book that made a great impression on me, and I believe our friends on the list would enjoy reading it. "The Education of Little Tree", by Forrest Carter, was originally to be named, "Me and Grandpa". It is Carter's autobiographical remembrances of life with his Eastern Cherokee Hill country grandparents, after being orphaned. It is a touching account of 1930s depression-era life. Rennard Strickland in his forward of the book says, "The Education of Little Tree' is a book from which one never quite recovers. After reading Little Tree one never again sees the world in quite the same way." Probably most of us on the list have read it - for those who haven't I highly recommend it. I just recently subscribed to the list, and I can hardly wait to check the mail - morning and night? Thank you." Ruth Doss Hanley - AND EDDIE SAYS, "GET A LIFE. ETERNAL LIFE." and I'm for that!!
