I probably said I'd take it. I thought I could get a
print copy. The quick look at it that I just took it
didn't look all that bad, and perhaps it is an
important book. It's translation of the opening of a
Ming Dynasty tomb, and if I had the print book it
wouldn't be that hard to fix. It looks a little more
interesting than the Archaeology of the Lands of the
Bible, and perhaps it is a book that students in
certain fields might be required to or want to read.
But since I find that my libraries now don't have the
book, I can't fix it.
Clearly, since nobody asked where it was, it hasn't
been missed.
