Well,
At least I am off to a good start, I have Chris Schwarz’s The Anarchist’s Tool Chest!
And it’s not like i need an excuse to buy more books, but now, I DO have an excuse to add to the library!

Thanks for the post!

Thanks for the list. I’m not surprised that any LAP book made it. Glad PWW is selling the ones on the list too.

Thanks to Chris for posting a readable version of page 1 on his Lost Art Press blog. I would love to read page 2, but the graphics posted in this blog are unreadable.
