Book Find... History of the English People...

[Old Ironsights]

Just aquired a nice 4 volume set of the "History of the English People" by John Richard Green...

Spans from 449 a.d. to "the modern era" of... 1815.

First Printing, hardbound, dated 1890. Paid $35 for the whole set.

Wow, that is a find. Someone treasured that set.

Winston Churchill's, "A History of the English-Speaking Peoples", is a good read.

I'll try and find a copy of Green's books.

Cheers Mark
