Indeed an excellent read.

Signs of the times~

Our local library has a pretty rich budget and will order 'new' books in, per request and if not inventory or available from other sharing network libraries. So....

They ordered in, per my request Road to Valor. Brand new as other other sharing libraries didn't have it. Read, return, done.

Part 2: Our rich library also disposes mostly thru a book sale room, $1 hardcover or a full bag of books for a couple of bucks. After browsing the shelves, here was the exact book I checked out. Only 1 year had gone by since this book was purchased by the library. No one other than myself read it.

I purchased it along with a few other books and passed it forward to a fellow forum member.

Our library seems only as a place for people to park and WiFi connect, use the library computers for porn browsers and large groups of kids for after school online gaming.
