I think I am incorrigible. I tried to go to Professor M.'s office hours this morning, but he wasn't in. What was in, however, was a box of give-away books in the hallway. I know that I have a problem with books, particularly free books. And, actually, I was fairly good. Of the six books that looked mildly interesting, I only too four:
The Wormsley Library: A Personal Selection by Sir Gall Getty, KBE, because it was lots of pictures of old books.
…the other harmony of prose… by Paul Baum, because, well, it looked interesting.
New Readings vs. Old Plays by Richard Levin, which ruined all of my practice time today, because I kept skimming through it and being entertained.
The Tudor Constitution: Documents and Commentary by G.R. Elton, because I can't resist a big book of primary sources, even if they aren't primary sources I'm terribly interested in.
I know that I am running out of space for more books. Actually, I already have run out of space proper, and now I'm running out of space to stack and balance on top of books on bookshelves. But… FREE BOOKS!
