THANK YOU!!
DS was able to download it for free!
This is why the Peas are so fantastic! Y'all saved us so much time, $$, and aggravation.
I am pretty sure DS was doubtful when I told him not to buy anything until I had consulted the All Knowing Peas, but this has made him a believer.
DS was like THANK YOU PEAS! And DD chimed in from the other room "ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY PEAS!"
TL,DR: DS needs an obscure book and needs suggestions to find it other than Amazon.
Hoping the Peas can help me find a book that DS needs for a summer history class.
DS found out in April that he can graduate a semester early if he takes 3 classes this summer. Yeah!
All three can be done online are should be pretty easy, Art appreciation, and 2 low level history classes.
So the history professor is kind of a pill. Making students print a hard copy of his syllabus and sign it and then send him a picture of the signed sheet, because an electronic signature doesn't count.
Office hours are via zoom, 1 hour a week, Wednesdays from 1 to 2. However, no instruction as to if it is a one on one chat, a group chat, or first come first serve. No mention of what happens if the hour expires before you get a chance to speak to him.
So anyway, his university provides students FREE textbooks. Very cool!
But this professor doesn't want to use the ones the university wants to provide. Oh no. He wants the students to buy a book (actually 3) one of which was published in 2005.
So far the only option DS can find is at Amazon, used, for $30. If he was using only that book for the entire class it would be fine.
He needs this book to write one, ONE essay. 1.
He found one on ebay for 35 that also had make offer, but his $20 bid was immediately rejected.
He also checked our local library and they don't have it.
He can't find it digitally except for on Nook, which I am not sure my Dad's even still works.
I am hoping the Mighty, All-Knowing Peas (as DH refers to y'all) might know of other websites or sources for this book.
"The Southern Past: A Clash of Race and Memory" by W. Fitzhugh Brundage, published 2005.
Thanks Peas!
