Site Guide
I'm glad you've dropped into my little home on the web. You are most welcome. This is site is about the books I own and read and has been built, for the most part, to help me keep track of what books I've bought, what I've read, what I thought about those books, and which books have been recommended by friends which I think I might like to read in the future. I hope that putting all this stuff on the web will help me keep track of my books and reading and also inspire others to read more, to read more widely, and to get more pleasure from their reading and their books. It's as simple as that.

STOP PRESS

The long awaited English translation of Corinne Hofmann's sequel to The White Masai, Reunion in Barsaloi is now available. Hurrah!

Bookish Musings

I've added three articles from my old website, which will come down later this month. The first is on Collecting Uncorrected Bound Proofs (otherwise known as Advance Reader Copies -ACRs).  The second is a set of very preliminary notes on the evolution of the dust jacket.  The final one is a guide to identifying fake dust jackets.
