Bibliography
The following resources were all useful in the creation of Bible Black. Some of these materials link to Amazon.com, where I earn a small commission for anything purchased by visitors. Not every link takes you to the same edition listed in the Bibliography, especially for older books. Whenever possible, I tried to link to less expensive and more widely-available editions.
