Hmmm. Interesting wording, "have owned." And I suppose I should not include books my wife purchased primarily for herself. Guess: 3,500. I don't read much.

2. Last book I bought
The Modern Firm by John Roberts. It's waiting for me back home in Orkney Springs. Part of my summer reading.

Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow
