Library patron returns book he took in 1982, plus $200

A man who stole a book from a Montana library in 1982 has returned it after reading it at least 25 times, having it restored and having the author sign it. As part of his self-imposed redemption, the man also donated $200 to the Great Falls Public Library. The patron said he considered the book, "Bid Time Return," one of the greatest sci-fi/romance stories ever written.
