[CW] ?"Morse Therapy"

[David Ring]

Ron,

Yes - old Tom the Sparker's book!

Those that aren't familiar with one of Canada's favorite authors who
was an old Spark operator at Sable Island, might want to read some of
the extracts from this book and perhaps even buy a copy at
www.abebooks.com (or other seller).

This is the link for the excerpts:

I know the file is spelled wrong!  That's the link that works.  Fumble
fingers here!
