To everybody who was asking about the book, I just found where it can be ordered. I believe that John West mentioned McDowell Publishing and coincidentally, I've just received Sam's latest booklet. He has a section entitled "Order From Sources Listed!". Mr.Thompson's book is in this section. So,here's what it says:

"Breckinridge Co.,History & Legend", Thompson, 171p.hard- $20.00 + $1.50 shpg. KY residents add 6% tax. Order from: W.A.Thompson, Dept. M, Rte.1, Box 13, McDaniels, KY 40152"

A lot better deal than Ebay's $66+!!

I think the starting bid on ebay was 66 dollars.
