English Go Books listing

Post by vash3g »

Does anyone have, know of, or can link to a definitive english go book list?

Besides HKA's impressive library, we're thinking of building one for our club/college library. We have over 120 books already but to round out the english section would be awesome. We would also like to smack down the chess section there. Can you help?

I'm sure you've thought of this, but going to the Kiseido, Slate & Shell, Yutopian, and Yellow Mountain Imports (they have a few books not sold on the other sites), should get you about 90% of the way there for in-print English books.
