Hi, Allen. Yes, just last week my husband recieved an offer for such a book on the FENDER surname. I sent a message to a group of Fender researchers that I am in contact with and I don't think all of them had recieved the same offer. I thought at first it was sent out to Fenders from the postal service. Anyway, one Fender researcher responded that he had heard of the same thing on two seperate surnames in the past. One recipient thought the book was very helpful and the other did not. I ordered the Fender book. If I recieve just a few morsels from it on our line, I feel it is worth it. Just my opinion, Carol On Sat, 15 Nov 1997 [email protected] wrote: > Hi Everybody: > > I received in the mail today an offer to purchase "The New World Book of > Whitakers" published by Halberts in Bath, Ohio. > > Has anyone ever heard of either this book, or this publisher?
