I don't remember who requested then way back when.They never got scanned;
I posted about them because about them because they sounded so interesting
(when I read the reviews and about them at the time) that I thought now
I've finished reading my favorite regency authors' novels I'd try to get
them to read, but I couldn't remember author or titles; but if Larry (or
you) scan them and I proof them that person's request will finally be
granted and I'll get to read them while "working" -- killing 2 birds with
one stone, so to speak.
