Books on books !

As far as books on books go,this a pretty good effort.Although it is what I call an "edited" book,and in the main part is an assemblage of a lot of bits and pieces.It doesn'nt pretend to be anything more than that.Donaldson has included something of intrest for everyone who loves books and reading.One thing that I have trouble with is the picture of the author holding a book which looks like a much bigger than the 128 page copy I have.Could this be the promise of a much larger next edition--I hope so! e-mail me if anyone knows,Thanks.
