An Introduction to Historical Linguistics by Terry Crowley

While I haven't been able to read this, yet, I had to share an interesting sight (the link takes you to a Google Maps Streetview) I noticed while out and about earlier today. This is on the side of a building near Portland State University -- I suspect part of the building might have once been the campus bookstore.
