FORT LIBRARY CATALOG ON NBS WEB SITE
Asylum Editor E. Tomlinson Fort has provided NBS with a
catalog of his numismatic library, which we have made
available on our web site with the kind assistance of
Bruce Perdue. The "home page" for Tom's library is
http://www.coinbooks.org/fortlibrary/ In his words:"The advantage of having your own library is that it is always
open when you need it. However, once your library reaches
a certain size it can become difficult to remember whether
or not you have certain works. Some years ago I began a
catalogue of the items in my collection. This has helped me
on many occasions for knowing what I do have when I need
to look something up or when I am offered a book for
purchase.My library contains items covering most aspects of ancient/
mediaeval numismatics and sigillography, as well as political,
religious, social, and economic history. However, it is
strongest with regards to my own areas of interest and
research: the Roman Republic, the late Roman Empire,
Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman England and the kingdom
of Scotland. To a somewhat lesser extent I have a number
of items dealing with ancient West Semitic and medieval
sigillography as well as the coinages and history of Visigothic
Spain, Merovingian Gaul and the Carolingian Empire."Thanks, Tom!
