That sounds really good, will have to grab that one when it gets validated.

Subject: [bookshare-discuss] New submission: Address Unknown
While waiting for books to come in to scan (back in
the days when I was scanning instead of validating)
and not wanting to start a validation project during
the wait, I scanned some smaller books I found at the
used-book store that I thought bookshare people would
like to have. I decided to finish pre-validating this
one before starting on my next Caldecott book.
Address Unknown is a short book that will, as the
publisher says, possibly take no more than half an
hour to read -- but it is chilling in its way (it's
not a murder or traditional horror story) and moving.
Written originally in 1938 and published as a short
story in Story Magazine, it affected the public so
much that it was decided it should be published as a
book. Also it was made into a movie, which I would
love to see. It was republished in 1995 (but my copy
is from 1939) as a Story Press Endangered Classic.
The story is told in correspondence between two German
friends and business associates who lived and worked
in the United States. One returns to Germany for
business purposes while the other, who is Jewish,
remains to conduct the U.S. side of the business.
