Pike's biographies and portraits

Hi - hope this finds you well. I'm just letting you know the following in case you may find it useful. For the usual irrational and research-obsessive reasons, I have recently found myself in possession of six of Pike's Contemporary Biographies series, plus a small section of the London one (full details here). Yes, one of them is Sussex. But the big-ass London architects planted buildings in all counties, so they are of interest to all of us editors who create articles on buildings and architects. I have uploaded the indexes of the volumes that I have, and hope to be able to upload the full London index soon.

So I'm letting you know this, so that if you find anything of possible further interest in the indexes, you could ask me to upload the relevant content, or you could possibly order a Pike volume from your local library. (if available - they are large and fragile). it would be impossible for me to photograph the lot, so I've uploaded a random batch, in the hope that editors will ask for further uploads if they find anything of interest in the indexes. There may be other editors reading this, who may also find the info useful. Rcsprinter123 may be interested, also.. Storye book (talk) 09:26, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
