THis is the e-mail that identified the person to whom the e-mail request for these books can be made. He not only can make arrangements to sent the eastern book, but also the western book. It is actually restricted to the Pacific Northwest. It is about one half as thick as the eastern book.

Email Dick Reardon at rreardon@xxxxxxxxx and request a copy be mailed to you. I just received my copy and it's a hardcover with 500+ pages. It's great that this is available but I can't help but think that this helps explain why our government is broke. ;-) Ken Childs Henderson, TN Chester County http://www.finishflagfarms.com The USDA just published a book titled Rare, Declining, and Poorly Known Butterflies and Moths of Forests and Wetlands in the Eastern United States and the best part is it's free for the asking.
