Merejkowski - The Romance of Leonardo da Vinci by
Francis A. Miniter
It is a curious thing that little oddities so catch our attention after years of

magazines), when...

Bud Webster
In the section concerning deodorizing books, the FAQ mentions using
dryer sheets cut into strips and placed between the pages; I can

signature.Any suggestions?

about this theory the more curious I become. If in fact this radical
theory proves to be correct, the 'big bang' theory becomes an event
that is a common occurrence. If this...

Collecting vs.Accumulation... by
Gnome de Plume
Re the previous thread about what constitutes true collecting as opposed
to the mere accumulation of books: I think the whole question was
fallacious. Accumulation is, by definition, any kind of accumulation -
collecting included. Collecting seems to require accumulation by its
very nature.

William M. Klimon
In recent months, I've encountered an increasing number of Korean War
books, both fiction and nonfiction, and even a Korean War book
collector (although he admitted that his collection was quite small, a
couple dozen books if memory serves).
It strikes as a wide-open field--there is a reason it's...
