So for the price of an ink cartriage and a half a ream of paper I can print my own copy of the book?

I bought a pretty good book entitled "Contemporary Queen Rearing" by Harry H. Laidlaw, Jr., A Dadant Publication.  Have only had a glimpse at it, but it appears to be pretty well laid out and reader friendly.  The only nice thing about a purchased book, is that it is a good size, compared to when something is printed out, the print is on standard paper, which can be rather large for my library.  I have only an ink jet printer, so if it gets moist, the print runs.  If you have a laser printer, then it be best to print off the book from the site.  Great day. Cindi
There are strange things done in the midnight sun by the men who moil for gold.  The Arctic trails have their secret tales that would make your blood run cold.  The Northern Lights have seen queer sights, but the queerest they ever did see, what the night on the marge of Lake Lebarge, I cremated Sam McGee.  Robert Service
