Excerpt from Adventures in American Bookshops, Antique Stores and Auction Rooms On reading the proofs, I feel I have not done justice to my bookselling friends. I wandered into their shops, I browsed among their books, I listened to their talk and wrote it down pictures not studies, impressions not descriptions. Some of my friends have since passed on to a better world and in these pages will be found perhaps the only record of their useful and laborious lives. This, I believe, is one ex cuse for the existence of my little book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
