Ik heb daar ook wat hele mooie boeken kunnen kopen, bijvoorbeeld originele Amerikaanse boeken van Paul Auster met harde kaft, voor weinig geld en personeelskorting. Ik heb het boekje gekocht, inderdaad in de hardcoverband met koordje, op de ramsj van Selexyz Scholtens in Groningen. Die is als je de trap afgaat aan je linkerhand. De andere Selexyz-en in o. A'dam en Utrecht hebben ook ramsjafdelingen, maar ik weet niet of die dit boekje ook hebben liggen. Goei tip Bas. Er is hier geen Selexyz maar het toeval wil dat mijn vrouw op dat moment in Amsterdam liep. Ze heeft er een mee gebracht van Scheltema. Mooie timing Ik had mijn exemplaar onlangs weg gegeven maar wilde het toch wel weer hebben. Re: Legendarische whiskyverhalen, Johannes van den Heuvel Ongelezen bericht door macoffringa » Vr Feb 12, pm Dit is een deeltje in de serie Legendarische X-verhalen, uitgegeven door Spectrum. Er is ook een Legendarische Wijnverhalen en een Legendarische Bierverhalen als ik het goed heb. Het zijn compilaties en bewerkingen van verhalen die eerder gepubliceerd zijn door anderen. Tegenwoordig is het niet ongebruikelijk dat een uitgever "meteen voor de ramsj gaat", zoals het goedkope maar indrukwekkende "Whisky - Een Werelddrank", dat vanaf de publicatie al voor slechts 12,50 euro te koop was. Met het boekje van Johannes is dat niet het geval. Eerder werd het voor, ik meen, 17,95, verkocht. -

ANGLO-SCOTTISH TRACTS, 1701-1714 a Descriptive Checklist
ANGLO-SCOTTISH TRACTS, 1701-1714 A Descriptive Checklist Compiled by W. R. and V. B. McLeod UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LIBRARIES 1979 University of Kansas Publications Library Series, 44 ANGLO-SCOTTISH TRACTS, 1701-1714 A Descriptive Checklist Compiled by W. R. and V. B. McLeod UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LIBRARIES 1979 PRINTED IN LAWRENCE, KANSAS, U.S.A, BY THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS PRINTING SERVICE To Helen and Don CONTENTS PREFACE « LIBRARY SYMBOLS XV ABBREVIATIONS XV THE CHECKLIST 1 BIOGRAPHIES 154 CHRONOLOGICAL INDEX 210 VII PREFACE For some years we have been interested in various aspects of a bibliography of works published during the reign of Queen Anne, and in particular in a working checklist of Anglo-Scottish materials from the conclusion of Wing's Short-Title Catalogue, 164-1-1700 to Anne's death in the late summer of 1714. We originally became interested in the union of 1707, and the vast quantity of pamphlets and other printed materials which that union and its subsequent history provoked. Even a superficial examination revealed numerous works in almost every major repository in the United States and in Great Britain; there had never been a bibliographical survey of such works and much confusion existed in contemporary as well as in later histories as to their number and content. Since some major and many more minor figures contributed writings to the Anglo-Scottish debate, both the literary and the political historian face controversy and disagreement in handling Daniel Defoe, Charles Leslie, An• drew Fletcher, George Ridpath, James Hodges, and others. Basically, this checklist attempts to do nothing more than to clear a path for the historian who seeks to write a history of the union in any or all of its many aspects, and to facilitate the study of such men as Defoe and Ridpath.
