[email protected]

I'm looking for a book and can't find it anwhere. I'm a good searcher,
so I think I must have the title and/or author wrong. I'm hoping
someone in this group might know what it is and help me find the right
title or author. Maybe it's an article in an old periodical? Any
ideas?

Newbie by
[email protected]
Hi all,
is there any advice or suggestion for me ?
I want to find some "rare" or antique book, especially about the
Christian Religion.
For example, how to know if I am overpaying, where to find them, what
are the most valuable on the subject, how to market them, etc.
Thanks,
Enrico
