[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

Hmm, this must be a great thread, 1200 posts going back years! Got some links to check out :)

Meanwhile, here’s one you may not have seen. An old book, and a grand one, available complete online.

http://books.google.com/books?id=sXFLCeHlrsoC&printsec=frontcover&dq=The+Cassiterides:+An+Inquiry&hl=en&ei=zgAYTabmBYH58AbrzfzUDQ

It’s “The Cassiterides: An Inquiry Into the Commercial Operations of the Phoenicians in Western Europe, With Particular Reference to the British Tin Trade,” by George Smith, published in 1863.

The entire book can be downloaded free — download link is at the upper right. Book is about 150 pages.

Enjoy! and Happy New Year to all, with special thanks to the pingmaster of GGG, my favorite list.
