Halfpint, you should be aware of the fact that the CPG does not list every variety. When I spoke to JT about some Kennedy halves not being included, he told me that there were some varieties left out. Otherwise, in JT's words, the CPG would be larger than the VAM Book.

I feel this is one of the big reasons for the delay of the last book. Wow, where do you stop, with all the great stuff out there? Where do you draw the line and just say no more.

Volume II has 449 pages. It's going to be fun seeing what Whitman goes with it.

According to JT, the 5th Edition will contain much, much more!
