I might add that it's order number A2G0051 and is $20.00.

It might be more appropriately titled _AppleTalk Programmer's Guide for
the Apple IIGS_ since it covers interfacing to all the various Apple-defined
protocols.  You will probably want to get _Inside AppleTalk_ (Addison-Wesley,
available from APDA as C0078LL/A, $32.95) as well, for instructions on how to
use the protocols.  If you really are getting it for use with AppleShare,
_AppleTalk Filing Protocol (AFP) Engineering Technical Notes_ (A7G0018, $25)
is probably indispensible, since I don't think _Inside AppleTalk_ covers AFP
(someone correct me if I'm wrong -- I've got the looseleaf version from 1986.
