History of the Sling
May 18th, 2006 at 2:22pm
 
Hi Chris and buddies, I have put online my book  History of the Sling (1999) for free access of the fans of my country. I send you the link, mainly for the few Spanishspeaking of the forum, although others interested in some articles can try to translate with Babel Fish. I had liked to also have a version in English, but neither I have the time nor the  necessary proficiency to do it. The book has a lot of images, bibliography and references. If you think that it is interesting to have a link there, IŽll be pleased with it.

It looks great hondero! That must of been a lot of work. Shocked The pictures are excellent too.

I grew up speaking both Spanish and English, so maybe I could try and translate it. I mean, it might be alittle difficult in some places since most of my education has been in English and therefore I've neglected my Spanish vocabulary somewhat. But hey, what the heck, it'll give me chance to expand my vocabulary. Grin
