    I've seen that cover photo, perhaps in a catalog.

    What is the book about, exactly? Like the "Alpha Book" Estes used to publish?

    Well, here ya go.
    Covers pretty much all that has to do with rockets and how they work.
    I just got off the phone with Priscilla (thats the lady who gave it to me)
    I called her tp thank her and put a bug in her ear to let her know,if she finds anything else rocket related, to think of me.
    I said no matter if its just a piece of paper.
    She said,"oh" in a rut-row voice.
    I said,"What did you do Priscilla?"
    She said "Ill check,but I think a bunch of rocket magazine thingies went to the burn pile.

    UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!

    Holly Molly, Im dying here now.
    Anywhoo- all may not be lost.
    She said she will check and is pretty sure there is other rocket stuff down in the cellar.
    I sweetened her a little and said I would even throw some coin her way for her efforts.
    Hope that line works....
    Heres some pics of the book.
