Hello All,
I'm also curious about this book. And why such a previously neglected family suddenly has more monographs than any of the "major" families. I understand from a large book dealer there is now another Petuch and Sargent book coming out.Give me a break or at least my wallet a break. What could they all find to talk about. I'm starting to wax nostalgic for my Burch and Burch with the rusty staples and disintegrating manila paper and my Zeigler and Porecca with the illustrations that are large enough to be of use and that actually contains original descriptions.
