Hi Mogg,
Do you mean an URL for the Bryn Mawr reviews in general
http://bmcr.brynmawr.edu/ or for the "travails of the "Pagans" in Persian
and Arabia" [don't know if there's an URL for that]. There is also a blog to
comment on the reviews here http://www.bmcreview.org/

thanks for posting - is there a url for that?
