The Anatomy of Bibliomania
A British "bookman," Jackson (1874-1948) here offers historical and cultural paeans to the book and to reading. The love of books is something nearly universal, though books have been reviled by certain cultures. Mostly, Jackson was a book nut who shared his love for the printed word, which, of course, includes libraries. These volumes were originally published in 1950, 1932, and 1947, respectively.Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
