Very nice, and just reward for all that you do for others here.
An extremely nice gesture Mike, to a very worthy recipient.

I bought the last one Amazon had a week ago --

Coming through Whitefish --

But mine isn't signed by Mike -- so I guess we see how Sal rates around here. 😀😀😀😀😀

Hopefully Whitefish still has them -- and hopefully there will be another run of printing.

What Mike has done -- is write a bible of Penn history.

This is a definitive, historical work -- this is Genesis through Revelation -- The Book of Michael.

It is hard for me to imagine anyone who uses Penns and loves them -- not getting this book.

The cost is just a little more than a set of good gears.

And, we need to support someone who has devoted this much research and effort into a book we will have and use all of our lives.  (IMO)

Best,

Fred

Sal, Great news! I don't think anyone would appreciate it more or anyone who deserves it more! Thank you Mike for your hard work in putting together this fine book and thank you even more for sending a copy to Sal!
