I discovered Dover Publications a number of years ago after running across a copy of one Andrew Lang's colorful fairy tale books at the public library. Lang's fairy tale series is published by Dover, and after getting four of his books, I went on to purchase other books on the subject of Islamic art.
Dover publishs books on a wide range of subject matter. If you are particularly interested in the arts, literature, and just the plain Romantic, Dover provides items for plenty of escapism, craft, artistic, literary, and learning ideas. Since I ordered several items from them last summer, including the Braun and Schneider book on historical fashion on which my Monday post was about, Dover sends me weekly e-mails of samples from some of their book and CD-ROM collections.
Below is what I have recently received.
If you are an aficionado of the Romantic and the beautiful go to Dover and explore other interesting and inexpensive rarities.
