If you don't want to wait your turn in the Wildcat Book Loan program, you can also contribute to Amanda's success as a writer by purchasing your own copy from your local book store. Amazon really doesn't need any more of your hard earned cash.

Consider buying a copy and donating it to your local library after you’ve read it.

Anyone know whether they have the book at Main St. Books or the college store?

In Mecklenburg Co. the library will not shelve any book donations, but will put them in their used book sales.

The cataloguing process of adding a book not already in their system costs them more than the price of the book, so they say.

They likely purchase books from vendors who provide premade cataloging records.

Really enjoying it. Pretty sad so far.

Finished it last night. An excellent read. The best book about Davidson athletics that I've read. To be honest, it is the only book I've ever finished about Davidson athletics. Very fun read. I hope that Otto and her teammates will continue to be involved in the program. We now have a better coach. The AD change will almost certainly be for the better. Concussion protocols are better. Overuse/abuse injuries from practicing on the upper courts should be reduced. And we are playing in a better conference. I expect slightly better fan support now that we have a team that is fun to watch again. I'm passing the book on to Cobb.
