A Crazy Happenstance: Robert Falconer

"The strangest story I ever had of finding a MacDonald book, here in the states, was when a friend (who also is a MacDonald collector) and I were traveling to a meeting and we passed a used bookstore we had never seen before. Instantly, we looked at each other and said, 'There is a MacDonald book in there.' ..."
