Default The Time-Life Cookbooks: Foods of the World series

I had to check a box in the basement, but it turns out that I have
20 of them. I got them from my mom, who I think got them from a
friend who dumped them before moving. I have none of the spiral-
bound recipe books that came with them.

The bad news, after I found the box, is that the volumes I have
all smell of mildew. They're somewhat dry (at least not water-logged)
so maybe there is hope.

Anyone have any hints on drying out old books?

Thanks,
Guy
