ADS Book & Periodical Giveaway - Last call

[Montgomery Michael]

Dear Allan

I would very much like to have the Garcia-Bermejo
Giner book.  I thought I was the only one in North
America to have a copy!  She is a good friend and a
co-editor with me on a 2003 book on 18th-century
Yorkshire dialect.

I would not mind having the Fishman book either.

What is your phone number?  I understand that you
cannot prepare a list of titles for us, but could I
phone you and have you quickly read titles from your
shelf?

In return, I will send you an autographed copy of a
2007 book of mine that you WILL want to keep!

All good wishes

Michael
