An index of the older FOLIO SOCIETY illustrated book reviews that I am writing. An index of the FINE PRESS and LIMITED EDITIONS illustrated book reviews is at the end of the Folio Society Archives list.
This index thread will be updated as each review is added to the talk threads, and a link to this catalogue will be added to the FSD wiki here and Fine Press wiki here for permanent access.
The criteria for inclusion of a book in the Folio Archives series of reviews are that it must be at least 10 years since the book was published by the Folio Society, and must no longer be in print by the FS.
The Fine Press and Limited Edition reviews may cover any book in my collection, regardless of age.
