Re: Review for GBW Newletter?

["Donald E. Smith" <desmith@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Sid
Unfortunately, right now I am very short on time, otherwise I would have
volunteered to review one of the books you mentioned.

Just wanted to let you know that I am always very interested in
translating from German to English any article, or short chapter, or,
or, whatever might need to be translated. German is my mother tongue and
my bookbinding/preservation vocabulary was increased tremendously last
year by spending three months in Switzerland/Germany at various
bookbinding institutions.

Hope to hear from you sometime when you need, or know someone who would
like, to have something translated.

Cheers,
Margit J. Smith
