I ordered a new textbook for my fall theory class. It's got a 2008 copyright.
I looked at the bookstore website. They're charging more than $100 for it. Now I really feel bad for my students.
I am searching for a Samuel D. Bradley who's great, great grandfather was Jackson Haywood Bradley born 1826. Are you related? Thanks for the reply.
