A reprint company has produced a hardcopy version of R. Payne Smith's "Compendious Syriac Dictionary" and BarEbroyo's "Dove". This small company (Old South Books, not to be confused with the Old South Books which concentrates on medical manuscripts) has typically concentrated on Civil War topics, but if you browse their blog, it becomes apparent they are branching out. Further still, the icing on the cake is their reprint of "Mystic Treatises By Isaac Of Nineveh". These works are freely available on the internet in various locations (see list of links to the left) however, reading e-text can be a tremendous strain on the eyes and a PC limits how and where you can sit. Opening a real book and feeling the pages in your hands lends itself far more powerfully to memorization and spiritual insight than looking at a computer screen. Excellent prices, too, for us non-academics.
