The bibliography is ever expanding but I am especially keen to include works on art, religion and culture, history etc. written by sons and daughters of the land so they can get some recognition, please e-mail me at cgore@dircon.co.uk to be included. Similarly anything I have missed out in the bibliography, please let me know so I can update it. If you use the bibliography, referencing it is appreciated.
