Ex-Library; 256 pages; Very Good/No Jacket. Ex-library with stamps, spine label, no jacket. Strong, solid, black linen cloth boards with gilt lettering. Boards are straight, tips are pointed, spine is square and pages are otherwise clean. One of the first discoveries we make is there have been men collectors since there was anything to collect. Land, houses, supporters, women, slaves - just plain hoarding, like a squirrel with his nuts. Then there is hoarding for pleasure, like a magpie with its jewels. (Introduction-Why Collect? )
