<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clavdivs, post: 4804163, member: 93702&quot;]Have no experience with this volume.. but a silly story on my quest to actually read another offering by Andrew Burnett.. his &quot;Coinage in the Roman World&quot; from 2004... a book of only 164 pages.</p><p>When I first started collecting, someone recommended the book as an introduction (perhaps someone here?). I purchased a used copy for around $15 and was thoroughly enjoying it (he is a very engaging writer)... maybe three chapters in.. An elderly uncle came to visit me from Vancouver for a few days and showed great enthusiasm for the LRBs I owned at the time. As he was leaving I wrote him a note inside the book&#039;s cover and gave him the copy along with a few coins.</p><p>Took me a few months to find another reasonably priced copy... which I promptly left in a hotel room while on a business trip in Pittsburgh.</p><p>3rd time lucky? Sort of a challenge now - I just have to finish this thing and keep a copy in my little library.</p><p>Bit of a pity the author won&#039;t get paid three times...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
