At the PNW GTG I received a copy of Baranek's book, High Climbers and Timber Fallers. Thanks to Bailey's for donating the book. It's great.
I sent the book to Spotted Owl today and when he's finished reading it he'll post here and send it on to somebody else. He'll decide who gets it next. When they finish, they can do the same...and on it goes.
I'd like to keep the book among the "clan", so to speak. Loggers...people who really make their living in the woods, will appreciate the book more than some weekend warrior. The Left Coast folks get first crack at it but there's no reason why some of the guys back east shouldn't be included.
There are a couple of requests. Keep a documentation on who has the book and where it's headed. That way it doesn't go astray and everybody who wants to look at it will have the opportunity to enjoy it. Also, when you get the book, sign your name and location on the inside cover. If the book makes the rounds for several years it might be fun to see who had it and where it's been.
Don't worry about a few coffee stains and finger smudges. It's a book meant to be read, not just displayed.
I also have a copy of Baranek's Fundamentals book and Will Malloff's great book on chainsaw lumbermaking. They're not for sale but they're available for passing around. PM me.
I don't want the books back. I want other people to enjoy them as much as I have. Keep them circulating until they're worn out.
