It's always a good birthday when you receive a pulp for a present! I've often been criticized for buying too many books, many more than I'll ever be able to read.
But I've always believed that it is far better to buy too many books, to have many more than you can ever read, than to be like most people and have too few books or even no books at all.

You can't go wrong with books!
Great line of Livia's! :) And Happy Birthday, James.
Happy Birthday and enjoy the books.
So whataya want for Father's Day, James?
