[Sca-cooks] Book info?

[Mark S. Harris]

Thank you, Bear.


I too, had noted this book. But I decided against it at that

$115 at the site without it. And the books were on sale.

on sale and which I might not ever see available again. Is there a
books anonymous? No, I don't really want to know. )
