Hello, Gregory - I just added LAND BELOW THE WIND to my own library and found your collection - most interesting. I found the book at a local thrift store, withdrawn from th Grand Rapids Public Library. It looks pretty interesting, considering it was written 70 years ago. And I think my mom (who is 92) will like it too. It looks like a "kind of a memoir," and I love memoirs of all kinds (always so much better than a biography, I think), maybe because I began writing my own story some years back. I've got 4 books done so far (RatholeBooks.com or Amazon) and working on another. Have you read Land Below... and if so, what do you think? I will keep an eye on your library. Lemme hear from you, okay? - Tim

Welcome to LT, and thanks for adding me to your "interesting libraries". I look forward to seeing what goodies you will be adding.
