To all Paleonetters,

I have 14 old to very old biology textbooks (see list at bottom) that were to be slated for the trash dumpster (our biology dept. is doing a bit of house-cleaning).  Being a bit of a bibliophile, I hated to see that happen.  Anyone willing to give one a good home?

Please respond off-line to:  stjohn.2@osu.edu

Please provide complete mailing address.

For American destinations, help with postage costs would be welcome (heavy books require some postage!).  For non-American destinations - don't worry (the currency conversion is probably more trouble than it's worth - my compliments!)

Best,

James St. John
