Greetings, all!
Following up to Master Robyyan's post earlier this week, here's some
useful info on this new book:
For a newspaper article that appeared in the 12/6/96 Raleigh News &
Observer, see:
http://www.nando.net/newsroom/nao/tri/120696/tri07_24120.html

It's basically a fluff piece, but it has some interesting tidbits that
make the book sound like it might be worth tracking down. (If you don't
have web access and would like a copy of the article by email, drop me a
line.)

Also, here is the Library of Congress Record for this book (you can
obtain info on any book cataloged by the Library of Congress at
