Yes, I'm using <cite> to reference the date. After a bit of search I
found this at [1]:
<cite class="ref-book" id="ref-edwards-civil_war_guns-1978"
title="Edwards, Civil War Guns">
<span class="author" >Edwards. William B.</span>
<span class="title" >Civil War Guns</span>.
<span class="publisher" >Castle Books</span>.
<span class="publication-date" >1978</span>.
</cite>
It's clearly overkill for what I'm doing but I can understand why the
author did it this way.
Cheers,
Jens
