I'd say the first book only because I met EDM when he was in the small town of Leesburg Va many years ago at a local gunshop that also specialized in collectable sporting books. Ed was there talking to the proprietary around a small table and I was in the back looking over a quite nice collection of English Doubles. Multiple copies of EDM's book were laying in the back. I had picked up the book and was ready about the author on the dust cover complete with a picture of EDM and realized that same fellow was currently in the store.
I picked up a copy and decided to purchase it. Went to the front and EDM looked up from the coffee table and remarked "good book" and asked me if he wanted him to inscribe it and of course I said yes. Anyway, was a brief exchange but I still remember it quite clearly and of course still have the book.
