David Glines has illustrated the first Tigertail Associates publication: Suetonius: The Lives of the Caesars. It contains both the origianl Latin text and an English translation along with David's original art. It will soon be available for download from the Tigertail Virtual Museum Library on the Third floor.

Producing quality illustrated books is expensive. To do more of this work we need additional funding. By contributing $10,000 or more you become one of the Friends of Tigertail and provide us with help to make these books available electronically to thousands of young people.

For the Friends of Tigertail; we will offer you a beautiful large-size leather-bound gold-embossed limited-edition of the two-volume boxed-set of The Lives of the Caesars. This limited edition is signed and numbered by the artist. This is our way of saying: Thanks for helping our work! This offer by its very nature is limited to the size of the edition and when these books are gone, there will be no more. We are a California non-profit organization; contributions are deductible from US Taxes.
