Just sent for it and look forward to reading it. Nice to see the good old days of the sport.
Saw the book at amazon also, which is super. Dave and his wife Laree started their own company, On Target Publications. And this is their fourth book. Dave wrote two of them himself and my pal Stella wrote Stella's Kitchen. All available at Dave's web site.
Laree is the driving force behind the web site and books. She is an amazing lady who works more hours at this than most work at a regular full time job. Bravo!
