When Durham Red was no where to be found because it was no longer existing, I felt a different kind of sadness because I was one of the many avid followers of the story. It may have been lost, but the good thing is it's back for another edition. If newcomers will be able to see the beauty of Durham Red's story, they will realize that it's going to be worth the read. I hope that the kids will give it a chance because they will see how great tis could be compared to the modern games that they are playing right now!
