Customer Reviews

This Book is A "Keeper"

Books continually pass through my office shelves--as an editor and a writer. Terry Glaspey has created a "keeper" or a book that will remain on my shelves. Why? He combines simple stories, quotations from well-known people about the value of books with outstanding design. The overall effect is a beautiful package which celebrates the printed page. What a great effort. Get this book--even if you buy it used.

Sheer Delight for Bibliophiles!

Beautifully illustrated and interspersed with wonderful quotes from book lovers, literature buffs and readers who read for life. It's hard to believe this exquist book is out of print already. I've owned my copy for a couple of years now and I pull it off the shelf re-read sections (or the entire book) every couple of months.

A Pleasant Collector's Book for Booklovers

Although not as good as the author's previous book "Great Books of the Christian Tradition," I did enjoy the picturesque tribute to books and the quotes about books from various authors. This is a book solely for booklovers and will probably not appeal to anybody else. Since I share Glaspey's love of books, I found this slender and lovely volume enjoyable. I just wish his last book previously mentioned was as nice and hardbound since I use it so much! - Brad Clark
