History of Physics Group Bibliography

This page is the beginning of what I hope will become a bibliography of books on the history of science. I have not yet decided in what order to list the books, possibilities are chronologically by date of publication, by author, subject whether person or aspect of physics, or period in time which the book describes.

As time permits I hope to add all the books reviewed in our Newsletter and 'Physics World' with links to the review itself.
