Description:
"The passion to possess books has never been more widespread than it is today; indeed, obsessive book collecting remains the only hobby to have a disease named after it. A Gentle Madness is an adventure among the afflicted. Richly anecdotal and fully documented, it combines the perspective of historical research with the immediacy of investigative journalism. Above all, it is a celebration of books and the people who have revered, gathered, and preserved them over the centuries" (from the dust jacket). xvii, 638 pages, 55 illustrations; 23.5 cm. Pictorial dust jacket mildly shelfworn, partial stain along top edge; Very Good. Stock#ofc0562.
