Best book.

Why did it take until 1974 for someone to think of this idea?

The best blank book

In "Life Without Principle" (1863), Henry David Thoreau wrote, "I cannot easily buy a blank-book to write thoughts in; they are commonly ruled for dollars and cents." Today, most bookstores carry blank books, but the selection is often disappointing. Most have lines and unattractive covers. "The nothing book" is a good size, has good paper, is unlined, and features a solid-colored cloth cover. In 1994 I got a red one. In 1998 I got a blue one. I only wish you could choose the color.

AWESOME! A MUST FOR CREATIVE PEOPLE!

Although it is made up of no words whatsoever it is THE perfect book for anyone who is creative. I have used mine (I have more than one/takes a year to finish one)for a sort of memory book. I have tryed to use other 'blank books' but none are the same quality as that of 'The Nothing Book.' Everyone who sees mine wants to do one themselves. If you are creative enough, get this book now!
