I'm looking for an inexpensive used copy of the Crock of Gold by Irish author James Stephens. Any of you Celtophiles out there have one that you'd part with?

I'd go as far as one of the best books ever written. Must be 45 years since I read it and it's still in my mind. I've often assured visitors that they'd be welcome & there's plenty of extra stirabout on the hob. I think I should re-read it.

Dear Abby, Nice to see that Shambles quote out of context brought back into "da hood." Always, good to see you around.

In case folks haven't heard of it, there is a great used book store that specializes in books of Irish interest. It is at www.quixotebooks.com. I've been ordering from them for year, and never been disappointed.
