Thanks, Marv . . . but . . .

Thanks, Marvin.

I was about to post the same web site address, myself.

I found this site by Googling Loomis. I have downloaded the entire book. What a chore! But, the illustrations came in (or I should say they print) blue. There is a little color in them, but mostly blue.

What I did, in an effort to have a copy of some kind (poor quality that it is) is to find a lending library that had a copy. I scanned in the illustrations, and they print out much better. Still not book quality, but very much better than blue.

I like the book a lot. Loomis seems to have a way of simplifying things. I would love to have a copy of the book, though. I poke around at garage sales and flea markets. One day, I'll find it.

This book, and others by Loomis, are available on ebay and other sites, but they are usually quite pricey -- from $100 to $600.

For anyone who wants the text the site you mention is not bad. If you know of a way to download the whole thing at one whack, I'd like to hear how it's done.

Thanks again, Marv
