John Pritchard's Publications

The list below is a little out of date, and somewhat incomplete, but kept for historical interest. A more complete list can be found at the ADS. Please note the above search also finds Pritchard, J.M. and Pritchard James A. who are not me!
The last time I made the search I got list of abstracts...
