Request

If it's not too much trouble, could you guys maybe put publication years in the labels?

I think it might be fun to look for reviews of books that have a similar dates, just for kicks.

Thanks,

Goedi

Goedi said...: Awesome, thanks!
See, now when I search 1961, I get two books off your list. And I think about what they have in common that reflects the time in which they were written/published.
Thanks.
This also reminded me that I wanted to check out the double-entry book.; September 29, 2009 at 7:05 AM
