Seeking books on runestones

Post by olaf haraldson »

I'm curious if folks have and recommendations for books on Norse runestones and picture stones. I carve some, and I'm interested in learning more about the existing stones, whet types of stone they were cut from, what pigmants were used to paint them, etc. I have some tiles (albeit very few) but don't want to waste money on books that are not wirth it.

You do ILL a copy of a "new" book from the public Library before *buying* it right?

I work in inter-library loan at a public library, so yes... if it's available.
