LordTheNightKnight Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 I saw this book at a thrift shop, and the cover glued me to it. http://cgi.ebay.com/The-Widow-of-Desire-by-Justin-Scott-1989-First-Edition_W0QQitemZ8429468576QQihZ021QQcategoryZ377QQcmdZViewItem The book is a mildly entertaining cold war thriller, but the fact that it involves the US and Russian fur trades certainly put a great spin on it. There are versions with different covers, so you want this one. And I can upload the pic to the gallery if you like. This is another interesting book about a cursed movie star in the silent era. http://www.amazon.com/Bride-Rat-God-Barbara-Hambly/dp/0345381017 The furs mentioned are mostly what this star owns, but imagining her wearing them in every possible moment is a treat. Plus there's a review of it here: http://www.coldfusionvideo.com/book/brideofratgod.html That's a site that mainly covers one of my other interests: bad or obscure movies. That's about all I can think of right now. Anyone else have any books with lots of fur?

Worker 11811 Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 This is cool because, behind the scenes, I'm working on a new face for our old Library wiki and I'm putting a page into it for books that talk about fur! 8) I've got it about 3/4 of the way finished. Once I get it cleaned up and looking pretty, I'll put it on line and we can add all these great links to the library! I think it's going to be very cool!
Guest Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Please upload any interesting pictures from ANY source so long as it meets the CoC. Those covers would be great in the Gallery and we have a place for the interestingly enought Good for future reference. Make sure they have the Title in the picture title. OFF

icepilot Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Awesopme cover! Let's not forget... http://www.amazon.com/Ladies-Furs-1940-1990-Twentieth-Century-Histories/dp/0896762076/ref=sr_1_1/104-2106292-9852749?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1174388238&sr=8-1 Does any one have a review of this series? Photos or illustrations?
FurLoverinFL Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 I posted a short one in the library. You can read it here: http://vdsden.thefurden.com/fdwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.LiF4090 Of course, you can also click on the Amazon link... FLinFL
icepilot Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Nobody has reviewed it on the amazon site yet....thanks for the Wiki posted review>
LordTheNightKnight Posted March 23, 2007 Author Posted March 23, 2007 Are there any other books? And my OP made it clear the book doesn't have to be directly about fur.
