Perry,
You're light touch has brightened my day immeasurably. While I don't know Ms. Modene Gunch (aka Larry B.)personally, I will make it a point of purchasing "her" book on big game parakeet hunting in the midwest. Perhaps Ms. M would post here how the book written under the pen name of Larry Brown can be purchased...hope it's on-line.
Thanks again.
