Thank you so much, Jane. It's comments like yours that make me happy to be
a bookshare volunteer and if you, and people like you, do enjoy good
descriptions I will continue writing them (maybe with a but more brevity,
as long as Susan will continue to edit them for me.
Speaking of my efforts at writing description. I saw on tv advertised a
movie title *Walk. *It seems to be a movie of the man who s walked on a
tightrope between The Towers ( the ones that were crashed into on 9/11)
perhaps. I swear I saw such a movie before. My efforts at description were
poor-- someone else corrected them for me. Whatever I said about holding
the balance beam was totally incorrect and translated to the blind
membership a picture of holding it upright from the wire, not horizontal
across it.
The book is in the collection under the titleThe Man Who Walked Between
the Towers

I cllicked on it and found Shelley scanned it. now I remember that
she's also the person who scanned Medal of Honor:" Portrait of valor --
and she did several books about dogs: breeds, dogs owned by famous people,
which I also proofed described as best I could
Is Shelley still with us? still scanning?

I want to thank Book Mouse but can't find her real name and that's what
she's in my email address book under She did a BSO, to correct teh
navigation of my proof of *Medal of Honor: Portraits of Valo*r(I forget
now who scanned it but she did an impressive job -- it was a huge book)
(the rules had changed from when the book was first scanned and I prooffed
it. But Book Mouse did more than simply correct the navigation. She not
only retained the descriptions of the medal of Honor winners I'm sorry
they're so detailed --I wouldn't do them that way again) and the numerous
other illustrations over which I and Susan Lumpkin labored so long (she
edited them for me) But she used a newer edition for her proof and added
important and interesting material, including men who won the Medal of
Honor after the publication of the original book. I highly recommend that
anyone who has not yet read the book do so and offer my heartfelt thanks
to Book Mouse for her extraordinary work
