The Great Book Collectors is a comprehensive history of unique and important libraries through the ages, and the fanatical collectors who developed them. It offers a glimpse into the provenance of important works - both individual and cumulative - and the passing of the torch from collector to collector as the inevitable passage of time claims the passionate bibliophiles each in turn. For fervent collectors of books, it serves as a touchstone to a past that we may otherwise never be able to experience, nor understand, with such clarity and precision.
