One of his books that I have is called, "Adventurer's Handbook, a guide 
to role playing games", by Bob Albrecht and Greg Stafford.  It's an 8.5" 
x 11" format and 204 pages.  Also, if I remember correctly, he had a 
beginner's series in one of the computer magazines (Popular Computer?) 
in the early 80's called the Wizard's Castle, or Now What Do You Do, or 
something like that, and I think he was the one who went by the name of 
George Firedrake.  I'm relying on 20 + years of faulty memory here, so 
someone please correct me.
