About meTwenty six years of age. A spendthrift and ne'er-do-well, variously employed in the church, the book trade, newspapers and tourism.
A poor hand with a sabre and an only passable pistol shot, I am fondly remembered by all those who never lent me money.
About my libraryI've read about half of these, but I tend to buy books like bears eat; storing up fat for the winter.
It's mostly non-fiction as I usually give away the fiction as there's only so much room in the house. I'm a gamer and a writer (of sorts) and so a great deal of my non-fiction reading is dictated by those pursuits.
I also have a very childish collecting impulse, so that there are a couple of collections within the library.
The main ones are...
The Call of Cthulhu Collection - Material for the Call of Cthulhu role-playing game, the Rolls Royce of RPGs.
The Osprey Collection - It is no accident that Osprey publishing got its start in the collectable card market. They are very, very pretty. While not always as good as I'd wish them to be, they are often the best a limited field has to offer. Gotta catch 'em all!
The Victorian & Edwardian Adventure Fiction Collection- Doyle, Wren, Buchan, Conrad, Haggard, Kipling, Stevenson, Wells. They are all magnificent and I have a terrible tendency to rebuy them whenever I find a more handsome edition.

Frank Herberts notes on Dune history really...it's not like I bought them recently or anything, just catalogued before sending them to the attic!

I was reading your profile and I was surprised by your statement that Osprey publishing got its start in the collectible card market. What cards did they make? I've just recently started picking up some titles (when they're on sale) and you're right, they're very pretty! I'm not sure I'm going to "get them all", but I'll pick 'em up on topics I'm interested in.
Take care.

I had just crashed out of the PsychoCon 2005 Formula De final!
Despite some gear changes and positioning, a sequence of '1's and '20s'/'12s' caused my car to explode. At least I had a beer to drown my sorrows

on Commodore Perry's expedition to Japan
Picked up a copy last week, but I'm pretty sure I saw a second copy on the shelves in the Secret Book Store...

I think the only quibble that might be offered is that, as usual, as a Greenhill Books publication, it is expensive. Frankly, my copy, like most of the Greenhill Books I own, was found on the used book market. I tend to by new from Greenhill only those works that are 'must-haves' for some reason, otherwise, I will wait until I can score one at a better price even if used - and often enough, 'used' even means simply 'remaindered' so it has only shelfwear if that.
If you will allow a plug, some of the authors in this work (and others) can be found at the www.napoleon-series.org online forum, which is one of the longerlasting online discussion groups on Napoleon and related topics still operating. It is a bit more controlled and less free-flowing than some online forums, but as you may well know that can be advantage and in this case the level of discussion, I think, makes up for any feeling of restraint.

It would be nice if you could fix these, so that all the copies may live together :)
