Please try to post your E-mail address when looking for those out of print books. That way we don't start one of those infinite answer chains - with no one really knowing what books are out there.I was writing down several books that people are looking for [There's a convention this weekend], and would like to suggest that after the initial posting of the book request that the rest of the posting be off-web. I've also noticed that several people don't read back through the messages, and a 'match-maker' would be useful. Rhe Lynn was looking for 3 books. Did Michael Caffrey send them all? Michael B. Caffrey is looking for Stand to Horse - you should contact Kathi Nash who listed an extra copy. Tim Favreau, try Kathi Nash for BULLARD and Space Pioneers. Kathi Nash,.....well you are looking for firsts. I wonder if NESFA has any copies of Grand Master's Choice, their web page is http://www.nesfa.org/ Kathi....I assume that you don't want a paper of SWORD IN/IS (now which did I have an extra of?) AND PLEASE, delete as much of the ::Messages as you can before replying. When I'm reading down a chain of messages, it really becomes confusing when I have to hunt for what the new information is. Oh yes, be gentle when you correct people. I answer messages from my 'at work' computer. My books are at home. It is true, however, that I have my Book Lists, and Bibliography on line. It is also true that I haven't memorized book details. [Except the ferrets, there weren't ferrets...I think that there were Mercats & African Eagle, Cougar & finally a horse.] As a point of knowledge. Andre Norton likes creating new species by finding a Terrestrial animal that isn't well known in the US and changing it slightly. I've always pictured the animals from MOON OF THREE RINGS as Wolverines, and Fishers.
