Old monolingual with 19 tomes Nov 22, 2010

My encyclopedia is taken from my parents. Very interesting to read as there are about the countries such as USSR which are no longer exist. I haven't seen it for a very long time, but it is still useful in my opinion. I can't throw it away:)

No yet - but planning to get one Nov 29, 2010

I always want to get a set of Encyclopaedia - not only for my translation job, but also for understanding the beautiful world.

Although we can search and find information on internet quite easily today, I still prefer a real book.

Follow alphabetical order and come across surprises - Fun!!

A sad story Nov 29, 2010

When I emigrated from the UK to the US three years ago, I left my beautifully bound set of 1990s Britannica in the street for people to help themselves to. It was there for several days, and nobody took it.
