Muhammad: His Life Based on the Earliest Sources
Martin Lings

Inner Traditions, 2006

A wonderful addition to our library: both educational and entertaining!

Anthology of Japanese Literature: From the Earliest Era to the Mid-Nineteenth Century (UNESCO Collection of ...

Grove Press, 1994

This is brilliant!
What a wonderful survey of Japanese literature from the very beginning! Ending around 1870 actually makes sense. In fact, even doing that, a lot is still left out, I'm sure, but that's what the various modern readers are for. I had no idea this was originally ...
