His writings made me want to visit the Orkneys, but I had to settle for Guernsey, Coll, and Islay.

Thank you again for all of your reviews w...Hi Ron,<br /><br />Thank you again for all of your reviews which give me big pointers about "something to read next".<br /><br />I seem to have lost all of my own picking and choosing 'terms' and at the moment, though I am in the middle of reading two biographies of a Scotsman from the Northern Isles (Orkney) - George Mackay Brown - I also need some lighter reading in the hours when my sleep is constantly broken.<br /><br />I tell you what, I just received "Andy Adams' Campfire Tales" through the mail, a book you mentioned not too long ago and your notes sent me searching for it. I bought it through Amazon UK at a real bargain price from a bookseller in Atlanta. I only opened it last night and was immediately lost in another world.<br /><br />I have bought many, many books over the past dozen or so years using Amazon, and many of them after reading your reviews and recommendations. I really do appreciate the US booksellers who put their books up there at virtually no more than shipping cost. It is often the only way I can find such books. Many thanks to them, *and* to you for pointing me to the titles.<br /><br />Please keep up your good work. Your own striving on as you do, helps maybe weaker persons like myself to try and "come along for the ride". Your posts really do pick me up on many down days.<br /><br />Best wishes.Henry Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00447003961256484619noreply@blogger.com
