Hmmm . . . . and I was just thinking of adding the Schafer book to my
Amazon "Wish List."  Maybe not.  Were those excerpts from a review
Joywitch or have you read the book itself?  Has anyone read it that
would care to add commentary?  It's sounding more & more like something
I might want to avoid (but a more expensive mistake than the Shapiro
unauthorized bio that was terrible but only cost me $5).

I think it far more likely that someone in this group was the first
person to notice the indirect way to compute Harry's birthdate and
construct a chronology.  In fact . . . . it could be said that virtually
anyone who reads CoS can make that leap.  <g>  It's not all *that* hard
after all.
