For Jim's two fall studies, I had to order only one book. The other required books I already have.

The one book is actually a book that I suggested to him, but it's such a classic that he probably had already planned to use it without my input. He's never used any of my suggestions in the past, so there's no reason to think so now.

Amazon said it shipped last night and I'll receive it on Tuesday. It's Cohen's Everyman's Talmud. I'm more than a little intimidated but I don't think that I'm alone in that, so hopefully we'll all get through it together.

Of course, the real question is whether he'll have enough people interested in an afternoon study or if he'll cancel it.
