In my writings, I allude to, cite or outright quote from various source materials: dictionaries, encyclopedias, lexicons, grammars, Bible translations, etc. The bibliographic information for these works quoted, cited or alluded to are to be found here, in my bibliographies.
I am breaking down this lengthy document into pages, and the division breaks are determined by specific categories of reference works. I will be adding to the pages and categories as time permits. (Besides having access to the wonderful resources of the Internet, I also have various software programs, as well as an extensive library of books collected over the course of more than four decades.)
Obviously, this resource on my website won’t be something read from start to finish, like an article or essay, but in the interest of accountability I am making this information available. This way, if anyone wants to check up on my research, they can refer to the same sources I have used.
