The author, who is both participant and observer, presents the book as a series of âdaysâ where he uses a cast of thinly disguised real people attending the auction to provide a sweeping overview of not just book collecting, but social and literary history within the collecting circles of the time, providing interested readers with unique insights into the collecting habits and passions of the era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
