It is with much regret that I have to get rid of most of our books, owing to the impending move onto the canal boat.

I seem to have acquired a heap of Anglo-Saxon history books (covering just about every aspect of their lives), several other British history books (including "Life As We Have Known It" by Co-operative Working Women and "Textile Machinery" by Anna P. Benson).

I've put a few on Amazon and all the novels will go to a charity shop, but I thought maybe someone on OGFB would like to have a rummage through the history stuff.

I don't want any money for them, just to know they've come in useful.

There are some, like Edwin Waugh's "Factory Folk" that I just can't part with, but otherwise I have to be utterly ruthless - if nobody wants them, maybe a local school would? Do they accept secondhand stuff?

Edited: Forgot to mention that I have a boxed set of the Gormenghast Trilogy by Mervyn Peake from my 70s student days. Not worth a bean on eBay/Amazon but a shame to just let it go.
