Default A very worthwhile read


I was fortunate to stumble across "A Passion for Books" edited by Harold
Rabinowitz and Rob Kaplan" with a foreward by Ray Bradbury. It's a terrific
read for those really interested in books. To quote from the cover - "A book
lover's treasury of stories, essays humor, lore, and lists on collecting,
reading, borrowing, lending, caring for, and appreciating books.

It includes a selection by Philip Rpoth, John Updike, Umberto Eco, Robertson
Davies, Noicholas Basbanes, Anna Quindlen, Christopher Morley, A. Edward
Newtopon, A.S.W. Rosenbach, Robert Benchley and many others.

It's listed on Abe for a few dollars.
