I am trying to bring my knowledge of the various branches that bear on my field, bird diseases, up to date. If I’d had this chance to study the literature at the time I had my laboratory…my book would have been much better than it is.” Another, in part: “The orders for the book are still coming in. One book store, he did not tell me where, has placed five orders for ten books each.” In overall fine condition, with intersecting folds. RR Auction COA.
