If a lot of these are used for classes you may sell them quicker if you sell them on Amazon, a used textbook site, etc. Plus they should calculate shipping for you.

Sorry I can't be of more help, I'm buried in books too.

XD Yeah, I am probably going to end up doing that soon, but I want to try this first because getting at least some sold all at the same time appeals to me. I need money but I also just need them GONE.

I'd like to put in a claim on Piers Plowman, Mary Magdalen, the Hitler Myth and Gods of the Blood. What forms of payment do you accept?

Generally I like to take Paypal, but I could do a check if you'd rather not. :)

and that would be ... $25, plus $4.50 for shipping = $29.50

P.S. I'm curious, what did you think of Hatcher's Black Death?

Thanks! Total = $26 plus $4.50 for shipping = $30.50. My PayPal addy (if you're okay paying with that) is grianne2 @ yahoo.com

Re: Hatcher's "Black Death" -- I have only skimmed it, but it's a very unsual book. It's basically more like a historical novel, though it is based on very extensive research and primary documents. I bought it with the idea of maybe giving my students some selections of it when we covered the plague in class, but there just wasn't enough room for it. And it's very specific of course to a particular parish and time period. Kind of a cool project though.

I've read it, and I was curious to get another perspective. I agree that it's a fascinating project, and has it's good and bad points. It seems like his novel gets bogged down in his history, and his history is limited by his novel.... I definitely wouldn't present it without some more 'traditional' or scholarly histories behind it....

Look for a PayPal payment coming shortly! (And thank you, these are some titles I've had on my "to acquire list" for some time! :D
