Art in Central Celebes - Walter Kaudern on CD

I meant to say something earlier, because I got the CD quickly from Arjan.

I am really enjoying this book. You can read it on any computer with the free Adobe Reader.

Great information and wonderful illustrations!

I like it in the pdf format because you can very easily search. Just go to "find", type in the term you want to search and get quick response from anywhere within the 445 pages plus over a hundred more pages of color plates of this fine book.

I have seen some online books where they just photocopied the pages making it impossible to search because each page is just a photographic image of type. This has actual text. very readable.

I like it better than a paper book as far as readability and ease to use for reference.

I have several first editions of old books (not this one) and I don't want to "use" them because they are in such fragile condition.

Not exactly sure where I should be posting this. As a mini-review, perhaps it is best here. I won't post a link, but you can find more info over in the Swap Forum.

But I wish that Arjan would sell some more books like this. He will have a continuing customer --- me
