Thanks to two anonymous readers I've been able to cross two books off my list. Thanks so very much!
This time of year a number of internet sites and blogs run lists of gift ideas for "men".
For the record, I definitely don't want a flask or a knife or a pipe.
In years past, some very kind readers have amazingly sent gifts on Christmas. Those gifts have all been helpful and, of course, very much appreciated.
To be honest, I've got a number of academic projects I'd really like to finish this coming year and I require a number of resources to realize those goals. And what I need isn't going to be cheap.
I've put in some links below but a quick check on www.Bookfinder.com is always the recommended way to find books at the lowest possible price. You can also check out my Amazon Wish list - see the panel on the right.

Dr. Barber,

Dr Barber, The book you want, The Remembered Peter was published in 2010 and costs c. $120 By the same author: Simon Peter in Scripture and Memory: The New Testament Apostle in the Early Church was published in 2012 and is available new on Amazon for $4.95. The only question is whether this latter book is a popularization and not a scholarly update.
Thanks, Lee! Unfortunately, the one for $4.95 is a different book (which I have--and it is a solid scholarly work, though not as technical as the other). But thanks for trying to help.
