Dear one and all;-
I think the Habe-Kosuge book is real. In fact, I think I got it from the
Cincinnati Public Library when I wanted to use some of the Ep images. There's
vol. one and two done by different authors. When I get a chance, I will check
their catalog to make sure; then I'll get back to you.
