THE BURGESS LIBRARY
BY ACQUISITION DATE A library of Burgess books was lost in a fire in February 2012 ... these are some replacement books Burgess COMMENTARY This list is in 'date of acquisition' sequence. Almost all these books were acquired second hand from the Strand Bookstore in Manhattan at a very economical price because I was trying as best I could to replace the books that had been destroyed in the fire. Many of these books were published in the 80s and 90s and have informed me during my career. The list needs to be updated to reflect some additional books that have been acquired more recently. It is interesting to reflect on the way priorities have changed over time and to try to understand what it is that has been driving the change. Some of the change is driven by generational change and the opportunity to rewrite history because it is now easier to do because old folk who actually experienced what happened are no longer active, or perhaps dead. Clearly some history needs to be rewritten to reflect changing values, but trying to change underlying facts is a different thing. Peter Burgess | ||
