This is a virtual tour of parts of my book collection. Use the table of contents to the left to navigate. Use the index or search to find particular items. Check out the Author Index for your favorites, my Recent Acquisitions (text only, updated 21-Feb-04), click on "New Pages" from the table of contents, or just click on the button below.
I especially enjoy science fiction and fantasy, so the bulk of my display will be in these genres. However, I also enjoy mystery, Chinese history and antiquarian literature. I also have ephemera related to books (periphemera™), as well as original book art.
The main pages consist of thumbnail images with descriptions. This allows these pages to load fairly quickly. Click on a thumbnail to view a larger image; these may take some time to load into your browser. The index and search functions also take a while to load.
Bibliographers and other researchers: I am more than happy to provide higher-resolution scans of anything in my collection. Please contact me for assistance.
I hope this experiment in virtual exhibitionism is enjoyable. If you have a virtual tour of your collection, please let me know and I'll add a link to it. A list of links to similar sites is available.
This site requires Netscape 4.06, Internet Explorer 5.0, iCab 2.0 or WebTV for proper operation.
Note: None of these books are for sale. However, I do occasionally sell books on Ebay.
