Messing About in Books

  

    14 February 04: Build a boat ... build a library.

    The middle B of the three -- Boats ... Books ... Buffalonya -- is books.

    Boats have been a love of mine for many years, and my love of books is of even longer standing.

    I have developed annotated reading lists from my book collections, and I've coined a word for the list of my boat books. I call it a Boatliography.

• Boatliography: The Reading Log

    Other material on our website concerning books:

• Colophon -- the last word
  • Our Style Sheet (ham on wry)
    • The Exploding Dictionary (definitions and detonations)

• And as mentioned above, I now have a second website that focuses on books about boating, what I call bookboating -- www.bookboating.com

  To read what I have to say about this bookseller, whom I  have admired and done business with for more than 20 years, click here.

    Project Gutenburg offers free e-books with an emphasis on best-known literary works. Most have pre-1923 copyright, enabling free distribution of the e-texts.
