Does anyone know about Kevin Baker?

Kevin Baker's History of the Orthodox Church in China, Korea And Japan will be released soon according to Amazon.com.

It retails for $109.00 in hardcover -- doesn't look like I'll be buying it soon.

My banking account will be wiped out after paying for Grad studies and books this semester.

I'd love to get it but that is way 2 expensive. I am sure my priest will be interested so maybe I can get him to buy it for the church library. Thanks for the info . if any one wants into on the Orthodor Church in China I know a bit. www.orthodox.CN

$109.00!!!!!!

Sheesh, apparantly they didn't hear that most Orthodox (willingly or unwillingly) have taken a vow of poverty! :P

I got that notice from Amazon, too. $109.00!!!! Maybe it's one of those big coffee-table books with great photographs in it???

For 109.00 it should be a coffee table! lol

Which brings up another point, does anyone ever READ those coffee table books?

Do people still have coffee tables?

Points to ponder...
