I bet after your review, there were quite a few people who added <I>Katherine</I> to their lists.<BR/><BR/>bybee - I am not familiar with any of Robertson's novels, but the titles sound great and I love the 1940's era.jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-32348884721825197242007-04-28T19:17:00.000-05:002007-04-28T19:17:00.000-05:00You're welcome.

I'm planning to go back over to Neglected Books and talk up Don Robertson's novels, especially the Morris Bird III trilogy (The Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread, The Sum And Total Of Now, and The Greatest Thing That Almost Happened). Written 1965-1970, the novels take place in Cleveland, Ohio during and after World War II.Bybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10061186489010154661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-2071569698287676502007-04-28T16:16:00.000-05:002007-04-28T16:16:00.000-05:00I have seen that site before, but I really need to...I have seen that site before, but I really need to bookmark it!

Since I wasn't familiar with most of the books, it would be fun to read what he thought about them before trying them for myself. <BR/><BR/>Sometimes those books from childhood carry so much more weight than just the book...and there isn't much better than that.jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-62946020313304630922007-04-26T10:39:00.000-05:002007-04-26T10:39:00.000-05:00Great site!
