About My Library
I have read a lot more than is presented in my library; I go through my shelves every year or so and cull out the mediocre stuff and sell it or give it away.
About Me
Rare book librarian, interested in history (especially history of medicine and science), ancient history (especially Greek), and quakerism. Also interested in 19th- and 20th-century fiction.
