Just perused it so far, but seems to be a very good book. Lot's of history, and pictues.
"The Last Templar" a novel by Raymond Khoury. Probaly nothing related to numismatics, but it doies have a picture of an old coin/medal? on the cover, and I have always been interested in the Templars, and the period.
Oh yeah, the third book is"Scroll Saw Fretwrk Patterns", nothing at all to do with numismatics, but my wife wants me to make her a foo foo box!
