You’re a loser mate
You’re just jealous. That is a very impressive collection, as are many of the others in this thread. I would comment on others, but my true intention is to smite Episcopus.
But I do need Pro Caelio and Catiline books.
loser be as loser does!
Average purchase price of the books I own would be c.£1.20, I just spend frequent second hand shops very often.
Sad to say, but I fear I am only going to keep on “losing”!
~dave
I am beyond green with envy…Nice collection! One of these days I hope to have much more classical…for now I think I have the NT Collection pretty well in hand. Time to start working on the Classical
Whence could I acquire some Cicero (Catiline mainly) since I need it for the HCP Prose Composition?
Great collections you have, guys!
I’ll only say I have more than I can get through in a decade.
As of today I have “The New College Latin-English Dictionary” (Barnum), Harrius Potter, and Wheelock 6e…and I am PROUD!
What a supertripendicular find on eBay! You did great! Now you have to make room on your bookshelf for all these…
