I borrowed it from Volunteer Braillists and have checked with the original
publisher and others they recommended and it appears I may be looking at the
only copy still around that isn't maybe in a private collection. I am
seriously thinking about transcribing it and making it available. I wonder
if anyone would be interested if I did that though besides me lol.
