Howdy!

Checking WordCat/Connexion, I see Kent State in Ohio has  a copy.
It's 2 volumes and is part of the Collection of British  authors
series issued by Bentley in 1881.

It also appears that  Gardners Books may have reissued this in 2007,
the ISBN is 0548207720 or  9780548207727, I found a Baker and Taylor
record for it.

Princeton  appears to have an 1885 Arrowsmith version, 2 vol. in 1

Best of  all...Abebooks.com has a number of entries, including
several   produced by Kessinger, available for $21.32 It appears to
be print on  demand. Here's the link to the page I'm looking  at:

I have a reprint of  this 1882 book, written by Frances  Elliot,
which was 
done by a  company called Kessinger Publishing in  Whitefish,
Montana.   

Here are my problems.
1.  Five pages are missing: 26, 27, 56,  76, and 126
2.  There is no way to contact Kessinger.  There is  no phone 
number or email 
address on their web page for contact.   All orders go  through
Amazon.  There 
is no phone number for  them in any on-line yellow or  white pages. 


So I am  wondering, hoping, that one of you out there might either
have a   
copy of this book WITH those missing pages or can find some way  of
contacting  
this publishing company to see if they have the  missing pages
somewhere.

As always, my very great thanks to you  all.

"If by a 'Liberal'  they mean someone who  looks ahead and not
behind, someone 
who  welcomes new ideas without rigid  reactions, someone who cares
about  the 
welfare of the people -- their health,  their housing,  their
schools, their 
jobs, their civil rights, and their civil   liberties -- someone who
believes we 
can break through the stalemate  and  suspicions that grip us in our
policies 
abroad, if that is  what they mean by a  'Liberal', then I'm proud
to say I'm a  
'Liberal'." John F. Kennedy, 14  September  1960
