I have added you to my "interesting libraries" list, impressed by your collection on Roman law. I hope you don't mind...

Thanks for your post on Codex Obama. Who says Latin is a dead language?

We are using LibraryThing to show new books which have arrived in the library the previous week.

A pleasure. I'm always on the lookout for ENO Opera Guides, which are uniformly excellent, thanks to the work of Nicholas John.

Just added two more. I swear, though, my reading's gone way off the last year or so.

I remember getting you the Marsh book, but are you certain about the McWilliams one?

I confess I've never read Muirhead, though have read in it (reference hunting) once or twice. It's my father's book, but I absconded with it when I went to graduate school. I see you've got Leeann Bablitz' new book! I haven't read that either, but I have met the author.

If the Watchman didn't deliver the prolog, who did?

Hello messpots,
Thanks for the message,and no I certainly don't mind what you have done with Buchan's 'Nelson's History of the War'. In fact it's a jolly good thing.
As well, it has made me look at my collection of Buchan and tag them together in a more sensible way.I have also looked carefully at your Buchan list,and there are several that I shall now be looking out for.
You will see that I have put you down on my list of interesting libraries too.
Best wishes.
P.S. Who is the happy looking chap heading your profile page may I ask.

I didn't even see our comment until today. Sorry. Thanks for the tip on the Susanna Clarke mixup.

Thanks for the drive-by humor in the site improvements forum. Absolutely fabulous.

My husband, who is the one who reads John Buchan, has the books that we list. He says that is favorite is The Blanket of the Dark. He also likes The Thirty-nine Steps. What is your field of study?

My husband and I were students at the University of Washington and took classes from a beloved professor named Giovanni Costigan. The history of Brasenose College was one of his books that we acquired from his estate. We have a number of his books and have identified them with the tag "Costigan Collection". My mother was nice enough to go to the estate sale and buy all the books that she found for us.
