I have recently read this book and I would highly recommend it for fellow GCA enthusiasts. It is light, enjoyable and entertaining.

If it is the one I am thinking about, the title is ON Course

If that's the case, then this thread is..."Off Course"...

They both exist. Forrest also published a little booklet called ‘Course Brains.

LOL — Maybe ‘Off Course’ would be a good title. Mark is right, ‘Of Course’ is an anthology of sorts whereas ‘On Course’ was a little dictionary of GCA terms, now on line via my website.
