What do you buy for a guy that has been collecting stuff (miniatures/rules/guns/woodworking tools, etc. etc) for over forty years? BOOKS! Books of course; each new book is a package filled with hours of entertainment that fits into far less space than a 28mm Macedonian Phalanx or another M-88 Commission Rifle (and it makes me look so danged ERUDITE to have a library packed with serious historical books). My family was kind enough to bless me with a mountain of reading material this holiday season and I can hardly wait to dig and fill the few remaining nooks and crannies in my brain with obscure facts (what was the facing color of the First Pomeranian Guards Regiment in 1688?......let's ask Anton!). I hope that everyone else was so lucky. And you best be prepared for more of my opinionated reviews coming down the pike!
in addition there is this mass of books and pamphlets
that I collected from my trip to Florida in November
Nice haul!
