Loved it!! Filled with tons of stories of rare or valuable or just plain fun books found by Mr. Meyer's over the course of his life as a book hunter. Highly recommend for anyone who loves books but not just the stories in them but the life of the actual book itself. ( )

Well written, but primarily a collection of anecdotes rather than a connected narrative. That isn't necessarily a flaw, but just not my preference. ( )
