I bought it once  but $10.00 a copy is a little steep to get every print.

$9.95 is a bit much Jon, but its loaded and will take 2 months to read through. Heck with it, I wont miss that $10.

I wasn't terribly impressed, seemed like a lot of the articles were just surface treatments of the subjects. Not a lot of in depth work.  We'll have to see how they hit their stride.

I bought a copy of the backwoodsman on my way home from the Classic last year. Saw it on the rack while waiting for a little old lady to count her pennies to buy some lottery tickets. My Indian buddy read an article in it a few weeks/months back that was pro white invasion on the Indian territory and he was fully disgusted by it. He wanted to write a letter to the editor, but thought it was a waste of his time.

Never seen the one you're talking about Pearly.
