but you always have an interesting set of books. Several overlapping authors, but not so many overlapping titles this time. Some gaps are easier to explain than others, though: a new Mary Russell! less excuse than the Studs Terkel books, which I've owned for possibly decades but still haven't read.

How was The Anarchist's Guide to Historic House Museums, if you can recall?

The Anarchist's Guide was very interesting. I can't say that I agree with everything the authors say, but it's definitely food for thought. I give tours at an historic house, and we have just changed our policy on photos (we used to require a separate photo pass and will now allow everyone to take photos). There's a big tension always between the "best" guest experience and the need for preservation, and how that is resolved is a big subject. I would really recommend the book.
