NP - Sot Weed Factor

[Albert Rolls]

The free book is Ebenezer Cooke's, not Barth's. Ebenezer Cooke was a living person, not just a character in a Barth book. It is nice that you can get Cooke's books.

I prefer M&D recreation of 18th-century language, but I also haven't read the Sot-Weed Factor in 20 years
