Considerably more detail has been given to both C-ware (White cross-lined ware) and D-ware (Decorated ware), including commentary regarding the different decorations that can be found on both types of pottery. The symbolism - mainly of the D-ware decoration - is covered in Appendix II, with particular emphasis on those pots that have boats and standards depicted upon them. Wherever possible, the C-ware and D-ware coloured illustrations have been identified using the line drawings of Petrie, Brunton, Quibell, et al. The book includes hundreds of illustrations, an extensive Bibliography, internet references, five Appendices, and contains 292 A4 pages.

This list was initially a subset of my G'Oogle list, which itself had grown out of a post I originally made at textkit. Anyway, this is hoped to be a more-convenient way for us to track all of the freely-available LCL books out there. I have sorted these by Loeb catalog number, so that it will be easier for everyone to know what we have found and what is still missing (but hopefully out there for free, at least those that have passed into the public domain). As always, feel free to email errors or additions, or feel free to post about them at textkit. Thanks: Many of you have emailed me additional links or posted them to textkit. Note: For some reason, Google does not make all of its pdf books available to computers from outside of the US and Canada.
