I have been adding many new books to my collection recently. My interest in reading has shifted to older books and authors. So I thought instead of just a simple book haul post I would do more of a spotlight/introduction post as well. So in the post below you will not only find the usual book haul photo’s, but book and author info as well. I hope you will take the time to look it over and maybe take a chance at checking out books and authors that you may have forgot about or discover in these post!

I found these books at my favorite local used book store. My all time favorite author is Robert E. Howard. Can’t wait to read about the man himself. Excited to add both of these editions to my collection.

Today we have:
