Sheeeeeyit.
I checked our public library's website and the library network to which it
is attached.
Not only do they have the Oil's CD in several locations, they have not one,
not two, but THREE COPIES of the book, two in my town (but the 1939 copy is
in off-site storage and does not circulate).
Thanks for the idea. Doh! Now if you can figure out how I can get some
free time to read it...
Another suggestion: I'd probably be able to locate it in one of the many
used bookstores in my area. Maybe we Yanks could pass a copy around for
the cost of book-rate postage.
