Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck

[Kari Lepola]

Yossi Horowitz asked about the availability of LTo$M.
To my amazement I found the English! versions of LTo$M in
Espoo city library's database (in Finland). 
Apparently Gladstone published all parts of LTo$M in four 
comic books. Here is relevant parts of the information from
that database translated:

That identifier number might be similar to ISBN, at least they don't
give any
other data like that. If ISBN would be available it would have been
mentioned
in the database. A hardcover version containing all the stories has
indeed been
published in several European countries and in several languages. I am
not
sure if there is or isn't an English version available. Are any other
languages
possible for you to use?

Here is parts of the data for Finnish version:
Creator:          Rosa, Don
Name:             Roope Ankan elämä ja teot, piirtänyt ja kirjoittanut
Don Rosa
Publishing data:  Helsinki Media Company Oy 1997
ISBN:             951-32-0355-7
Other creators:   Disney, Walt

Now if the name of the book contains funny characters it's because my
computer
represents the special scandinavian letters with the same bitstring your
computer uses for some other characters. Just replace ä with an a with
two
dots on top of it, or just use an a. Anyway the book is in Finnish, and
I
do believe that it is impossible to read with only a dictionary. At
least
some knowledge of the language is required. With Germany, France or
Swedish etc. 
it might just be possible since they are more similar to English.

It might be easiest if you could find those four comics, then you would
have
the whole series.
