Well, my book from Osprey arrived today.  LOL right before my e-mail from my CC asking about unusual charges (in the past I used to pay via Paypal's instant transfer.)

Just skimmed it (headache is killing me - love Saint Louis in... well, most seasons...) and I will go crash until daughter calls about being picked up after Soccer (Football anywhere but here.)

Looks wonderful.  The heads up is appreciated!

Gracias,

Glenn

I had the good fortune to be on a presidio dig in San Diego for a year.  We found everything from cheap Mexican pottery to bits of Ming Dynasty pottery.  Quite a diverse haul of artifacts.  I was not aware of this book and I will have to pick it up.  Thanks for the heads up.
