Aegean Park Press publishes a lot of books and manuals on cryptology.
Most of these are reprints of various out of print books, articles,
and manuals. They have quite a few entries for William Friedman's
books. Has anyone ordered their books before? They offer their books
in both softcover and "Library bound". What I'd like to know is, is
it worth spending the extra money on the library bound versions or are
the softcover good enough? The reason I ask is they happen to be
rather expensive and I don't want to waste the extra money for the
library bound copies if I don't have to.
thanks,
ds
