Library news

Greetings from The kabin where the sandflies eat my feet and the sun shines all day long!  We are entering that heady time when there are loads of new books coming out and my head is buried in publisher’s catalogues. So watch those shelves. I’ve ordered some interesting non-fiction books recently after requests by customers. Here are a few:
