According to Worldcat there are two copies in Texas -- Rice University
and Univ of North Texas. Worldcat often has errors because libraries
will add books, but fail to remove them from the database when they no
longer own the copy. You'd want to check directly with the library
(ask for a shelf check) before taking the time to go there.

There are lots of other copies in the US. I'd recommend you go to your
local library and ask about their interlibrary loan procedures. Some
libraries will make copies of a few pages and send them if you don't
need the whole book. Some of them even scan to pdf which is quick and
easy.

I'm leaving tomorrow for Known World Dance. If you still need this
next week send me an email and I can check wtih Rice for you.
