Christensens's book was very helpful when I had to write/research for
student work. I too have wondered about Withner's books.

If you've got a bunch of old AOS Bulletins I found that buying the AOS Index
has made them a resource. Of course both volumes of the index is costly
($$), but without it the mags are just potential trash. The Index only
covers the Bulletin years. No one has kept it up since they went to
'Orchids'

Thanks for the suggestion. We have the Bulletin back thru 86.
(A little dusty here and there) But all the volumes are complete.
I should get the index. I wonder why AOS does not do a better
job of indexing the thing year by year.

My problem is that I would rather go to one of the University
library than spend money keeping a collection of books I may
never again use (after my student days.)

On the other hand it does provide a list of suitable Christmas
and Birthday present material for the kids and Pa.
