Many thanks to the Numismatic Literary Guild for bestowing three of their 2013 awards to our favorite little email newsletter, The E-Sylum. Howard Berlin passed the word to me via email after the NLG Bash since I was unable to attend the ANA convention this year. Ed Reiter kindly forwarded me a list of winners. Check the NLG web site or the numismatic press for the complete list. -Editor

Most of the top book winners were announced or reviewed over the past year right here in The E-Sylum. Congratulations to all of the authors and publishers. In particular I'd like to congratulate Roger Burdette, who forwarded these images of his well-deserved award plaques. I'm glad to see his extensively researched, original works getting recognition. These, and all the other top award winners are deserving of a place in the libraries of E-Sylum readers. -Editor
