The "I'm busy so here's a picture" Post. Or "Look, books!"

Went out shopping today. Got what was hopefully the last of the costume + decor stuffs. Including some of these nifty books. From left to right we have A Single Pilgrim, On Safari, The Dominant Fifth, Three Little Maids, The First Stone, Uncle Tom's Story and Life And Death. Uncle Tom's Story is the fanciest one, the pages are gold edged and there's Uncle Tom's portrait on the cover. A little digging (google) tells me that Uncle Tom was in fact Rev. Josiah Henson. I'm told he's the Uncle Tom behind Uncle Tom's Cabin. Which is, you know, nice.
