As a lover of literature, libraries (the tragic fate of public libraries in the UK makes for a stark contrast with the contents of this handsome book), and beautiful buildings, this is right up my alley.
My edition is a medium sized one. But still nicely put together and lavishly printed. ideally I’d have got a larger edition. But funds constrained me. And better this than nowt.
I haven’t read any of the text as yet. Nor even really looked at it that much. But occasionally, as now, I’ll peruse it. And, oh my, it’s a visual treat!
I look forward to really spending some time poring over it. Maybe even reading the text?
