Carletta,

Thank you for responding. I don't know the author. I only remember  
the cover, and that the title said the book was about White Vine. Sorry.

It has been over 25 years since I saw that book, my friend is  
deceased, and his wife has moved, possibly married again so there  
would be a name change as well. I tried to find her some years ago,  
but no luck, as my letter was returned with "No forwarding address."  
stamped on it.

Any help you could provide would be wonderful. Sometimes I can track  
down a book like I did one on Renaissance handwriting by Alfred  
Fairbank, a man whom I met in the 1970's. He was a famous mundane  
calligraphy teacher at the time. Maybe I can get another blessing  
with this one?  :- )

YIS,
Lete

Steppes, Ansteorra
