Rick,

I just finished this great book on line.

Being a Southern Californian I found the book particularly interesting to me as it describes many of the areas that I have been to or lived among for my 60 years.


got any more books ?

   I just started reading "The Cape Horn Breed" by Capt. Willian H. S. Jones. This was Mr. Jones' first voyage aboard the "British Isles" as a 15 year old boy in 1906. Kinda rare book but well worth the work to find it. I think my wife had to order it directly from Australia, if I'm not mistaken.

Bob,

I will try and locate it at one of the local book stores.

I'm not much of a reader but lately started reading on line books here at work, lunch hour or slow periods.

One nice thing about on line books, I don't have to try and remember where I sat the book down last to find it !
