Summer holidays are usually about stepping away from work, but today I couldn’t help but be fascinated by the estate plan of a wealthy widower who updated his will shortly before dying in 1626 in the Republic of Ragusa (Dubrovnik), providing for his siblings and 3 daughters

One wonders what will happen to the library? Merged, sold off, recycled? With the trend of ever more American university closures ex library books will be flooding the market by millions (?!!) of volumes in the next few years.

We have completed initial processing of economist Hans Sennholz’s (1922-2007) archive. 22 banker boxes and 44,000 pages of documents. It provides a phenomenal insight into the history of modern economics.

Thanks to Mark (@FunkeBooks) for selling me this piece of real estate lore. There's nothing necessarily novel in the book itself, but Wade Cook's story moving from a real estate guru to convicted tax fraud earns this a permanent spot on my bookshelf. I've bought a handful of rare books from Mark now, highly recommend him!
