Additions to the web site

[Matt (admin)]

Just to highlight recent additions to the main web site (http://traplinesnorth.tripod.com):

I added a new "References" page with a PhD dissertation on Meader's writings and a Washington Post listing for a radio dramatization of TLN. Both found by Brian.

If you haven't seen it yet, also check out the tribute May Round Tyson's children wrote for her memorial. That's on the "Background and History" page.

I also added an "Editions" page to highlight unique features of certain printings, and even specific copies. The first item on that page is a description and scans of handwritten jacket notes by a former client of the Vanderbecks. Scott made us aware in this forum that the book was being offered on EBay. Then, after barely edging out the competition and winning the book, Julian provided the scans of the annotated pages, which are provided on the Editions page. Scott, I'm hoping you can provide me with some of the information you've gathered about different editions, so I can add it on the Editions page.

Matt, thats a great idea about the "editions" page. I would love to eventually see an overview of TLN over the lifetime of its printings.

[Matt (admin)]

Me too. That's something Scott suggested a while ago and he has collected quite a few different ones printed in the U.S. and in the U.K. Scott -- chime in, buddy!

Hello all. Matt I think I sent you the title page from the English first edition a while back it would look great on the editions page. Still looking for a 'blue" cover edition of this book but haven't found one yet. My British first edition I got off of ebay didn't come with a dust jacket so I made one from the red white and black one dust jacket. Made colour photo copies and spliced them together. Tried to convince Southern Skies to re-release TLN with the blue dust jacket but so far it's a no go
