I love this series and I especially love the Easton Press books! How do you order the Easton Press books individually?

[bumblesby]

@pinkfloydforever101 It all depends. Some books they offer individually, others are by subscription. Once you are an established customer they will sometimes let you buy an individual book in a series. If you like the Greatest 100 for example, you can subscribe and then choose the books you want out of the list of 100. The best way is to call them and see what they say. You may get lucky.

@joher525 Thanks. It is really fun putting them out there. I think more people should be aware of them.

Your books are so beautiful! I really want to do that book club thingie that you do. I forget the name of it now and I'm too lazy to go back and look at what it was called, but these beautiful books you show make me want to collect them! They are GORGEOUS & I love that cracking noise when you break the binding as well. This is kind of embarrassing, but it's almost like book porn for us book addicts! LOL

@bookge3k Well there were two book club thingies in this haul LOL. The Easton Press are the leather bound books and the smaller book in the slipcase is The Library of America. I also get collectible books from The Folio Society. They are all very addictive. YouTube won't let me enter the websites for some reason, but you can google them.

Great books.

But you know that Aeneid isn't really a historical book. Its more like and ancient version of PR in order to give Rome a 'special' beginning. Its usually seen as continuation of where Homer's Iliad left off. Great story though...

@bumblesby Thanks for the tip. I will call and see what they say
