Libraries are much more than mere collections of volumes. The best are magical, fabled places whose fame has become part of the cultural wealth they are designed to preserve.

To research this book, Stuart Kells traveled around the world with his young family like modern-day "library tourists". Kells discovered that stories about libraries are stories about people, containing every possible human drama.

The Library is a celebration of books as objects, a celebration of the anthropology and physicality of books and bookish space, and an account of the human side of these hallowed spaces by a leading and passionate bibliophile.

If the history of libraries and books is exciting to you this book has a great deal to offer. I've thoroughly enjoyed it! I would compare it to Nicholas Basbane's works, Basbanes is slightly better at continuity, but both share great stories.

wonderful!

Thoroughly enjoyable exploration of diverse histories of libraries and book collectors-- with great tangents and backstories that give depth and real-life color to centuries of historical book fanatics. Excellent narration, though sometimes rushed, it still earns 5 stars for performance, in my view -- and definitely for content too.

Excellent Story -- Really Enjoyed It
