Short on images, thin on topics by Terry Dolorosa (Concord, CA USA)  2 Stars
February 24, 2009
Sad to say, the book is seriously deficient in images and content. Of the first dozen topics I sought, not one was found. Of others sought, brief bullet points were found, but neither detailed content nor images could be found.
