Has anyone gotten the new book: Sterling Silver Flatware for Dining Elegance, Revised and Expanded 3rd Edition by Richard Osterberg? None of the bookstores in my area has a copy and I was wondering if it was different enough from the previous one to purchase?

Thanks

Robert

Hello Robert!
Some thoughts. It is only 4 pages more than the original.
As far as I know You can order it thru your local B&N perhaps & you are not obligated to buy it if it comes & it is not what you wanted.
You might also ask your local library to get it.

But hopefully one of our forum members may have it & give you a better insight.
Keep us posted, I love his books BTW!

Hope this helps.

I have it, but I'm not familiar enough with old editions to give you any advice about it. I didn't have one, and when I decided I wanted it, I found the 3rd ed. was about to come out, so I preordered it from the big online book retailer. I am glad to have it.
