I'm sorry, I posted an email with an attachment, and that doesn't work 
on this list, so here it is again, this time beneath my signature.

The first copies of the new edition of the Michael Holmes's Apostolic 
Fathers (the Lightfoot-Harmer-Holmes Greek-English diglot) just arrived 
at Baker Academic's warehouse yesterday. That should mean that copies 
have also arrived at San Diego for the book exhibits at the ETS and 
AAR-SBL meetings. Listmembers attending those meetings may want to visit 
our booth to check it out.

It's a thoroughly re-edited and redesigned opus. Michael (a member of 
this list) put a tremendous amount of labor into this revision, as did a 
number of us at the press; and we had significant advice and help on 
particular points from a number of outside scholars. I'm very happy to 
find that the 1000ppi paper and Smyth-sewn binding enable the book to 
lie flat even when opened near near the front or the back. The stamped 
kivar cover is over more substantial boards than used for the 
Bible-society texts that this volume otherwise resembles, so it should 
stand up well to use; but the feel is still quite compact.

At the San Diego meetings my colleagues in sales will apply a 50 percent 
discount--imho an absolute steal. If you can't attend the meetings, I 
imagine pretty good prices will also be available from your favorite 
online booksellers. Look for:
   ISBN 10: 0-8010-3468-X
   ISBN 13: 978-0-8010-3468-8
