Dear Booksharian Friends,
The following books have been claimed,
1. Living More With Less by Doris Janzen Longacre
14. Overtime in Heaven Adventures in the Foreign Service forward by Dean
Rusk Epilogue by John F. Kennedy
17. Command of the King by Mary Lide,
so I've put new books in those slots to keep that number at 24. Why 24? No
reason!
I'll send the following books free to volunteers interested in scanning
them. Anyone you like can validate them or you can put them up on step one.
When the book is approved, please do anything you like with it.
I hope to mail these to a variety of people who have a special interest in
them. I won't be boxing all of them up to send to only one or two people. If
I spread them around, maybe they'll have better chances to be carefully
scanned and validated and added to the collection.
As usual, please send your request and address off list to
airadil@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
I'll post which books are claimed and which are still available. Unless the
submittor notifies the list of what book I've sent, I don't announce who has
what.
I'll ship unrequested books to Bookshare.

new books for all of us.

fascinating, not boring, book for sports fans. The contents is printed with

income tax rate coupled with the abolition of all deductions except a 30
percent human depletion allowance for all taxpayers. a law requiring all
prison guards and wardens to spend at least one month at a penal institution
other than their own, as anonymous prisoners. Satire? I don't know/!
Thanks,
Always with love,
