about 500, 900 words. Pick up an average
volume from your library, count as you
can, in a moment, the number of words in
an average line, multiply by the number Of

that 500 600 words means a considerable
work equal to about 10 average novels in
amount of matter. These 500, 900 words
are contained in two handy and very hand
