yep
Yeah there is a copy there indeed, I contacted my local university to see about a inter-library loan. No clue if that will work or not considering how rare a copy it is.

Alas I live no where near the U of Missouri St. Loius.

Yeah there is very little info on it that I can find. I found the Wikipedia Entry, a couple of mentions of it in texts about early sci-fi and feminist movement.

Nothing on Distributed Proofreaders or Gutenberg.

Found it mentioned here:
http://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/themes/topian.html

as well as on Internet Speculative Fiction Database:
http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?1228252

Google books brings up mentions of the original release announcement in NYTimes, and in Publishers Weekly. Jstor brings up the mentions in a couple of academic papers.

No copies that I have found on the Internet Archive.

It is well and truly a rare book!

@Nohmi- It is always nice when a rare book gets digitized and made available for people to read! What book were you looking for?

Amy
"The Greatest Story Never Told" by Lana Cantrell. It is indeed a rare book, but not as rare as the one you are looking for.

I am going to read it in short bursts, as reading on a laptop I find to be a bit of a strain.

I really hope that you are able to find your book.

Cheers

This book really needs to be found and turned into a E-book. Forever lasting.

Well, it would still be able to be converted from given that it's basically XML/CSS under the hood.

But the popular e-book formats can easily be converted back and forth, Like MOBI to EPUB

I am now on volume two of David Icke's new book "Perception Deception".

The world is nothing as it appears to be.

He has his knockers; usually people who have never read any of his books with an 'open' mind, but his research is impeccable.

There are also others out there with enquiring minds who are writing on the same themes.

Cheers
