O.K. I'll do it unless someone else wants to. I'll request the book--but it will have to wait its turn. I think it will do me good to read/validate a book that was written by an African-American woman (I think--not sure of the race of the author) in 1928. BUT--if anyone else wants to do it, I'll release it and give you the correct copyright info as gleaned from the government copyright office site.
