sweisser- It isn't that we don't appreciate the offer, but that we both live in Europe and it would cost Chris more to send them to us than to a US or Canadian citizen.
I know that posting books is expensive because I work in the business.

Penelope & Ophelia
Both of you are worth the expense so please do pick a book and allow me to send you a book as a token of my appreciation for all that you bring to BookTalk.org. Yes, as I've said in the past the cost is greater for internationally shipping so I have to be delicate about who I award free books to, but you both are worth the added expense. Also, please tell me your first and second choices in case someone else has selected your first choices.

I already PM'd you but I'll mention the book here.
I'd love In a Time of War: The Proud and Perilous Journey of West Point's Class of 2002 by Bill Murphy if that's possible.
Thanks so much
