I ordered this yesterday...it's a required book for my American Heritage class. I really wanted this edition, but the cheapest place I could find it was SeagullBook.com and they were out of stock. So I put my name on the waiting list (thinking it would be awhile) and I went ahead and ordered the regular version for $3.75 (I <3 Amazon.com/Amazon Prime).
Soon after I received my copy I was at Deseret Book and looked around to see if they had the edition I originally wanted. I had never seen it in real life and I was surprised to see it was GIGANTIC. Probably something I wouldn't bring with me anywhere. Rough dimensions are 13" by 10"!!! Needless to say, I was glad I ordered the other one for my class. But it was amazing! The pictures are beautiful and in it are tons of removable letters, etc. made to look like originals. And I wanted it. Not for school. Just for me.
So, yesterday I got an e-mail from Seagull Book saying that they had 60 copies available! I looked online and it was for sure in stock. List price: $65.00. Seagull Price: $17.76 (seriously, Seagull Book you are humorous).
So, I bought it. And it will be here tomorrow! My dad got one too. And my Aunt Candi. You should too before they run out.

That edition is Amazing! I borrowed my grandmas book and didnt want to give it up. Took almost a year to talk myself into returning, instead of stealing. Thanks for the seagull tip, I'll be needing that.
At least we're geeks together. I saw your picture and I'm oogeling over this book. I love history. Maybe I could borrow it sometime. love ya!
