[ATM] Books

[Francis J. O'Reilly]

Richard,

Thank you for your reply. I'll grant that "The Amateur's Telescope" is not
an easy book to find. I guess that half the fun is in finding the book.

We live in Brewster New York, about 40 miles north of New York City.
Fortunately my wife is from Northern California, The next time we are in
California to visit relatives, I may stop by the UC Berkeley Library to
look at the book.


Best regards to you and yours for the holiday season.
