Yesterday we announced that the October-November-December 2024 book for Castalia History, Book Seven in the series, will be A Bibliography of English Military Books up to 1642 and of Contemporary Foreign Works. With an Introductory Note by Charles Oman. Edited by H.D. Cockle. For more details of why we selected this excellent and extremely rare book, visit the Castalia Library substack. Below is an image from one of the 900 books listed that was published in 1625.
In other news, the Hypergamouse campaign is soldiering on toward its second stretch goal. Lacey is wrapping up the cover and we’re selecting a pair of artists for potential alternative covers.
And the September-October Library/Libraria book is JANE EYRE by Charlotte Brontë. We’ve heard back from the bindery in Tennessee, and while several roads are washed out and they’ve repeatedly lost power, everyone is all right, our books are dry, and the schedule for both WAR AND PEACE and STUDIES IN THE NAPOLEONIC WARS should be more or less on time.
