ADAMS, John W. and CHAO, Dr. Fernando with the collaboration of Anne. E. Bentley. Medallic Portraits of Admiral Vernon – Medals Sometimes Lie. Gahanna, OH, 2010. 240 pages, illustrated in color in the text. 9.25" x 12.25". Hardbound. $95 The Admiral Vernon series of medals, can be very confusing for collectors due to the considerable number of varieties. Various attempts have been made to catalogue the series, but each has had its short-comings. This is both a scholarly work and easy-to-use catalogue that makes sense of the series. Each variety is illustrated with a high-quality picture.
