Literature
Select Bibliography

HOWEVER INTERESTING A PROJECT it would be, I cannot mention all the sources used in making this website, as that would surely become a list that would reach from here to London. Here is a select bibliography and recommended literature of the sources that may be of most interest to the reader. Online resources for further Internet adventuring are found on the Links page.
