Dear John: Of course you are right! I didn't read Robert's letter quite carefully enough and somehow got the idea that the book was being reprinted in a deluxe edition comparable to the original. I just reread Robert's letter and it says nothing of the kind -- in fact it mentions that it is a First Edition, one of 600 copies. Sloppy reading on my part. Still, for one who wants only the information to be found exclusive of the artwork, etc., there is the "reprint from microfilm" option at probably one-eighth the cost. Sorry for the confusion. Allan
