book: Uncommon Sound

Hey guys:

I was searching for something else and ran across this.  Have you heard of this book?  It's called "Uncommon Sound" and it is a book about all the different left-handed guitarists (like a biography type of encyclopedia of major left-handed guitarists in all the different music styles).
Table of contents for the red volume:
Some notable names in that volume include:  Paul McCartney (11 pages), Jimi Hendrix (11 pages), Mark Knopfler, Jules Shears, Elliot Easton (9 pages), Dave Wakeling, Kurt Cobain (9 pages), and Bob Geldof (7 pages).
It looks to be fairly well researched but it's pretty pricey (at $375).  It would be worthwhile to see if your local college has it as a reference book.
Peace & take care,
debm

Like I'm guessing, it's really meant to be a reference type of book a library would purchase.  [Or else very rich folks buy such books to decorate their coffee tables...]

Peace,
