Book: Farewell Old Mount

Hi All,

Doing some off-season research-with I might add some help from all of you on Winni.com-thank you.

Question: Looking for a copy of Mr. Blackstones' book "Farewell Old Mount".

I have found some copies available on the 'Net for $100- $150 dollars in varying condition-not a sum I would like to spend. I'm not cheap, just frugal. Happy to spend money for worthwhile results.

Any help out there? I have a call into the LW Historical Society to see if they have a copy of the book on-site, but no response yet. Will call the Laconia Library tomorrow.

I would also be interested in simply borrowing someones copy. If I have to buy it I will.

Watch for some great stuff 2010 that I have planned to dive and then post next year; If all goes well not only will these targets not be found on any chart (like the 42 foot steamboat I found on side-scan) but they to my knowledge, have never been seen since they went down except by perhaps 1 or 2 divers; I can't say now for site-security purposes what/where they are but if I find them it will be-to me at least-amazing.

Thank you for your help.

I will post videos and pictures as I did with the "Pile-Driver" barge.
