Welcome Athenaeus,
	Lainie posted quite a bit of good information for you to follow, so I would
just like to echo her Welcome!
	I know one thing that would interest me (and probably a few others) is
hearing about the earlier of your cookbooks.  Since I joined this group in
1979, we have gone from darn few actual sources to lots of available
sources, including many that are on-line.  My personal library has grown
over the years as well, but I still get excited by extant examples of period
works.  If you have the time, we'd love to hear more about your collection.
	In the Florilegium that Lainie mentioned, there is a review of period
cookbooks by a member of the SCA, which lists the books and their
information along with an opinion of thier worth to cooks, period scholars,
whether they are a primary, secondary, ethnic, etc. sort of source.  The
site for that review is:

	As Lainie also noted, this is a high-volume-list, but with a judicious use
of the 'delete' button, you can glean some very useful stuff here!
	Glad you're with us,
	Mistress Christianna MacGrain
