Good Heavens! I never realized I had such influence! However, it'll be
money well spent, I'm sure.

Having had another quick glance at my copy, though, I realize that I
probably didn't phrase my previous post very well - James does argue for a
cosmological basis, but he also believes that the myth is connected with the
disappearance of a kingdom in western Anatolia.

Anyway, I do hope that you enjoy the book.
