James Collins @ New Dominion Bookshop
James Collins, author of Beginner’s Greek, gave a reading at New Dominion Bookshop this evening. He and Carol Troxell, the owner of New Dominion, graciously allowed me to record the presentation for a future podcast. Sean Tubbs of Charlottesville Podcasting Network helped me set up and gave me lots of encouragement. In fact, Sean and Mr. Collins did all the real work — I just had to twiddle some knobs and listen to a great presentation. Many thanks also to the evening’s moderator, David Reynaud.
The publisher of Beginner’s Greek has done a better than average job of promoting the book through their website. Here are a few links for your enjoyment:
