Amen to that.? I need the "Toledano" classifications for the Paperbacks with the black background running torch and the other types of pb, ie: the epics on the generals.? I so rarely find anymore anything before Type 11 that I don't have, and ML literature quality doesn't change, it just encompasses new authors.? I do have a problem with the Chronicles though, (as tho that makes a difference), they seem to be fillers.?The information is more of a summary than a concise rendition, which is ok since a lot of people may never read Shirer's Rise and Fall but they may read Hitler and the holocaust and the Nazis and War.? By the way, I am nearing the completion of the Spainish Civel War. What an amazing piece of literature.? I had no idea of the extent to which the communists helped the Spainish.? Its just a doggone good thing Franco was so focused on his own thing.? But...I digress.? I think all ML should be classified for organization purposes.?

I have a rudimentary "sighted" list and classification system for the Chronicles series.? I wasn't too keen on collecting them yet when I started gathering the info, but thought I should while I had a chance.? I've also got a Toledano-esque running sheet on the 1980s woodcuts.? I was?trying to figure out 1st-thus-ness of these (which titles came out when, in what order, are there points, etc.).? I haven't done much with any of it in a while.? How about it Ron?? I still have that info mentioned on your 80s woodcuts page.?

Folks,

This kinda s***s.? I've spent several thousand hours in the last couple years amassing a database which now has 446 megabytes of data (almost all text - so there's alot of info)covering everything from 1917 - present.? Much of it would be very useful to have?online.??Scot's site doesn't include the later stuff. And I know nothing about building a website.?
?
I realize that are probably very few people who actually collect after-70's stuff (YET).? But it seems to me the time collect the info for those?who do and those?who will is as the stuff is being produced by Random House? (i.e., NOW).
?
So Ron, wanna think it over?? Heh??
?
Anyone who's already collecting later stuff, give him an attaboy.? Let's build the site up.
?
I got tons of info that I'm ready to feed out!

A bit late for this, I'm afraid. It appears Ron has decided to take
