Just want to let people know that this book, by Kathleen Fasanella, is
available on Amazon. Kathleen is the seller and I believe there are
only fifteen or so left. The book has been very difficult to get and I
highly reccommend it.

This book is self published, and with the exception of what's on Amazon
right now, Southstar Supply is the only other place to get it. I could be
wrong.

Thanks again Penny! Checked out Southstarsupply! Whoa....this is what I found on the home page:

Visitors please note: Orders less than $25.00 are subject to a $10.00
handling fee. Orders between $25.00 and $50.00 are subject to a $5.00
handling fee.

Now that's awful high in my opinion. They do have LOTS of interesting
items. Sigh.
