[PRCo] Re: Beal Pittsburgh Volume 2

[Edward H. Lybarger]

I have seen a number of things in Volume 1 that I never heard of
before...but I have had no time nor inclination to either verify or
discredit them.  There are a number of things that are clearly incorrect.

Okay, Folks, are the Beal books worth having or a waste of money? I was
thinking about treating myself to the lot. Certainly I remember the reviews
in
this group being mixed, but ....

Mistakes - even a lot of mistakes - don't necessary render a work unusable.
I'd
never be without my SPV atlases even though the errors I've noticed - never
mind those I may have missed - are beyond counting and the omissions beyond
conceiving.
