<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 7992653, member: 101855&quot;]You have to remember the context of the times when the Breen book came out. Collectors are spoiled today by the number of numismatic books in print. There were a fair number of books in Breen&#039;s day, and nothing like the current group. </p><p><br /></p><p>The closest think to Breen&#039;s book was one by Don Taxay. The first edition of that book was fairly well done. The second one had far more editing errors that you will find in Breen. </p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, Breen made some stuff up and he allowed his bias against Victorian values to color his opinions. Yet, for its time, the book was a huge step forward. And no one has attempted something with that broad of a scope since then.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
