BL> I got hold of that book you recommended (The wholly flood and
BL> the mouldy tail), and it's fascinating. It's full of my
BL> favourite subjects: Templars, Langeudoc, the Pyranees, and the
BL> Inquisition. I can hardly wait to turn the next page and see
BL> where it's all going.
BV> I thought you said that you weren't interested ?
BL> I was having a go at you for telling me it was the most impossible
BL> book you ever read - and then recommending it! It just took me a few
BL> months to get my turn at the library. I didn't know it was so popular.

Yeah...It's funny. I noticed from the dates in my original library
copy that it seems to go out for long periods of time and then sits
on the shelf for years. Then it's out for ages again... Quite strange.

BV> Had I have known, I could have lent you one of my copies. After
BV> reading the library copy, I went out and bought the paperback
BV> and the follow-ons. Then I ordered the Hardbacks from England.
BL> Ahh... follow ons. I notice it was written in 1982.

Not as good as the first. Having read all three follow-ons I can now
tell who researched and wrote what sections. The trio went their
separate ways after the first two. Between them, they have written
five books on similar stuff that I have read. While they are somewhat
different they are just as engrossing.

Regards, Brenton
