Real Name: Eric Thompson
About My Library: Quite an eclectic collection, though one with relatively little fiction. Consisting largely of English history, law, and literature, it contains many reference works.
I have tended to collect books mentioned in footnotes and bibliographies.
I suspect my books breed in the night; and, having inherited thousands more books from my late civil partner, I am now thinning the resultant collection. I've listed a few of the books I thought I might keep - though some have been sold since I did so.
About Me: Retired civil servant.
Born in East Yorkshire, now living in North West London.
Location: London UK
Currently Reading: 21 Lessons for the 21st Century by Yuval Noah Harari
Anglo-Saxon kingdoms : art, word, war by Claire Breay
Favorite Authors: George E. Cokayne, Richard Dawkins, Oxford Dictionaries, Jonathon Green, Antony Grey, A. E. Housman, Andrew Lumsden, Diarmaid MacCulloch, John Wilmot
