What about the oldie-but-goodie book by Kraus? Is that worth investing
in, or is there anything newer or better?


Hi Virgil,

Newer? Frequently, and accompanied by some astonishing claims.
Better? They can't even explain it themselves (although that doesn't
lower them on the Beaufort scale of gusting on).

As you are familiar with Kraus and have done some detective work, it
is unlikely you will find any surprises that diverge from the classic
discussion (it consumes all of a page or two in most books).
