About My Library
I read and collect books on Galveston and (occasionally) Houston history. I read histories and mysteries for pleasure, and have recently plowed through the Ellis Peters 'Cadfael' series, which was a masterful meshing of medieval history, murder, and mayhem.
About Me
Closet historian, genealogist, sometimes photographer, and architecture fan. Along with my books, I also collect pottery, canes, engravings and prints, and photographs, especially of early Galveston buildings and events to around 1920. I am a used and rare book dealer, specializing in scholarly histories, architecture and photography, art and antiques, and any other interesting books that tickles my fancy.
Location
Houston, Texas
