Sure, Ponine- if someone hasn't already beaten me to it! I'll read it first thing then send it on to you.

Ponine · 09-04-2007, 10:05 AM

Fair enough.
If you dont get it, I may have to go find it, then mail it on to you.
I had never heard of that book.

wendybeth · 09-04-2007, 10:08 AM

I've never heard of the book, but Fab had filled me in on the White City, the Fair and some of the stuff that happened there- I think it's a fascinating subject.

Ummm, I just noticed that I didn't read the previous posts well enough and a few of those are already claimed. I'd like the ones that are still available.
