A Star to the North was my first read from BC and was good enough that I continued on to read several of her books (though this book continued as my favorite). Thank you for posting the story behind your volume. Fascinating how those connections are made.<br /><br />Gene in TacomaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-1631351945594203752009-08-26T10:31:08.650-04:002009-08-26T10:31:08.650-04:00Now I am sad because my library system does not ha...Now I am sad because my library system does not have A Star to the North.

I just Googled her name and all I find are things about two other people, one in real estate and another from reality tv.<br /><br />Sad!
