[Scriptoris] Book Recommendations?

[g_r.cathan at att.net]

Nicolaea,

What kind of books are you looking for?  Compilations like Leaves of Gold,
single source like the Winchester Bible, Instructional etc?

You might be getting a large list from this group.  Problem is you still can't
flip thought them.  I suggest checking out your larger libraries.

One thing we could do is everyone going to the Kingdom Heraldic & Scribal
Symposium bring 3 or 4 of thier favorite books as a show and tell.

All that being said all most any book published by George Braziller, NY is good.
