It's pretty safe to say that if we take all of man kinds accumulated knowledge, we still don't know everything. So, I hope you understand why I don't believe you know everything. But then again, maybe you do.

Really Beckey's new book: "Range of Glaciers: The Exploration and Survey of the Northern Cascade Range," published by the Oregon Historical Society Press. Hasn't that title been a "new" book about to published for the last 10 years?

The "Publications" main page Click Here has a link on the bottom of the left margin stating "How To Order". It brings up an order form to mail or fax in. You still neeed to call them at (503)306-5230 to find out how much shipping costs.

Since this looks to me like a must-have book, I did some Web research and discovered you can buy it at buy.com for 25.20 (AND with free shipping):
http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=30727168&loc=106&queryType=book
They don't have it in stock just yet but if you leave your e-mail address they'll notify you.
Now does anyone know why it was the Oregon Historical Society that wound up publishing a book on the North Cascades?

Anyone else ever seen Beckey speak? I was disappointed the one time a few years ago. Better writer than speaker, and doesn't like to answer worshipper's questions.

Fred probably doesn't answer questions from the audience because he can't hear very well. He is about 75+ years old and lost some of his hearing ability.
