Book excerpt: On Dec. 17, 2004, Warren Lipka, Spencer Reinhard, Eric Borsuk and Charles Allen II visited the Special Collections Library at Transylvania University in disguise, under the guise of viewing some of the library's most valuable items, including a first edition of Charles Darwin's "On the Origin of Species." Once in the room, the men attacked a librarian with a taser, tied her hands and feet and blindfolded her. The men took the Darwin book, sketches by John James Audubon and other materials they then tried to sell in New York City. The auction house became suspicious, the four men were arrested in February 2005, and each was sentenced to seven years in prison. (Goodreads.com).
