Question: How many of you would be willing to pay $80 +- for the book "The Old Rugged Cross Lives On" by Molly Tate Shaffer? We are at the stage of needing to know how many to order for the first printing of the book. It is 500 pages with hundreds of pictures -- some in color -- some in black and white. As most of you know, it is the history of a 20-year journey Bob and Molly Shaffer, along with many others, have taken while restoring the building where this hymn made its public debut. Your input will help us determine how many to order on this first printing. Thanks for your help!
