Hi all,

Just submitted a BSO from the wish list--Iberia by James A. Michener.

It's another long one--961 pages plus the preliminary pages! It's been 
prevalidated--all headers stripped, page numbers and chapter titles 
protected.
There is a lot of Spanish, along with a smattering of French and Portuguese.
K1000 ranked spelling after allowing for capitalized words is 99.6%.

[Back cover]
The enduring qualities of Spain, an immemorial place like
 no other in the world, has made it James Michener's second
home. Here, in the fresh and vivid prose that is his
trademark, he not only reveals the celebrated Spain of
bullfighters and warrior kings, painters and processions,
cathedrals and olive orchards; he also shares the intimate,
often hidden Spain he has come to know, where toiling
peasants and their honest food, the salt of the shores and
the oranges of the inland fields, the congeniality of living
souls and the dark weight of history conspire to create
a wild, contradictory, passionately beautiful land,
the mystery called Iberia.
