Default Stone

Hello All,

I am sure you can help me. In many threads is the reffering to "Stone". You can give me the exactly titel from this book?

Thank you very much in advance,

sajen

Self explanatory why people refer to "Stone" or "The Stone".

Rather than to : A glossary.... etc. etc. etc. etc.

A bit like : Traditional weapons of th.... uhhh, "Zonneveld".

If you can find it, buy the first edition, all editions after this had increasingly lousy illustrations.

The last decent edition was 1961.

The more recent editions are not worth the paper they are printed on.

Thank you Alan, have ordered a hardcover edition from 1961.
