Giveaway: Signed Copy With Bookmark: Contest closed

I'm cutting out of work a bit early today, so instead of the usual post, I'll throw up a giveaway instead:



You'll get a signed copy of the book, along with the military identification card featured on page 132.

Contest is open to anyone, anywhere.

--sorting through entries, back with a winner in a moment.

Good luck!

    Love the site. Was inspired by a forgotten bookmark in one of my books to start a) leaving that quotation in other library books, and b) to have it made into a piece of needlepoint art that now hangs over my bed.

    See here: http://auntienettiesattic.blogspot.com/2009/05/quote-of-day.html

    I know the attribution is wrong, but I still like the quote.
