Book Giveaway

Jake has set up house in Exton and has left several books to be given away.  I also excavated my study and have several as well.  Mal grabbed three after the last Event.  Any wanting one or more, message me and I will bring them to the September Event.  As I continue excavating, more will be added.

New titles added at the beginning, above the line.

Friday's book:

Webster's Unabridged Dictionary - 6 inches thick, lots of words, all well defined.   :)

The Confessions of Jean Jacques Rousseau

Utopia by Thomas More (yeah, Henry VIII's Chancellor who was executed and made a saint).  Good read, though the language is a bit stilted.  Bright guy who died for his principles.  One f many books on this theme I read for a UDEL winter term in 1971.  

Tom Brown at Rugby, Tom Brown's School-Days by Thomas Hughes.  The model for the Flashman series.

James Herrot's Dog Stories by James Herriot.  BBC did a series.   good read.
