Good, includes jacket As a Yelp Elite I will not consider this a review but, more of share words from the book. this excerpt hails from Asa Don Dickinson's Guide to Daily Reading, found on page 112. I feel it conveys a feeling that any book owner/lover can truly appreciate: Sitting last winter among my books, and walled around with all the comfort and protection which they and my fireside could afford me—to wit, a table of higher piles books at my back, my writing desk on one side of me, some shelves on the other, and the feeling of the warm fire at my feet—I began to consider how I loved the author of those books. —Leigh Hunt Wow! That encasuplated a moment where i could almost smell the fire and feel the warmth of the room. You either get that or you don't. If you do, then you and I are cut from the same stock and I could consider you a friend. My money says that you have also either made a friend, had someone completely agree with you or had someone roll their eyes (in front of you or behind your back) when you mentioned how much you like the smell of a bookstore. You may have even pointed out that your books don't take batteries and never need to be charged. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

The Guide to Reading is a guide to great booksBy Dr. Lyman Abbott.Every home ought to have some books that are tools and the children should be taught how to use them. There should be at least an atlas, a dictionary, and an encyclopedia. If in the evening when the family talk about the war in the Balkans the father gets out the atlas and the children look to see where Roumania and Bulgaria and Greece and Constantinople and the Dardanelles are on the map, they will learn more of real geography in half an hour than they will learn in a week of school study concerning countries in which they have no interest.Contents: Books for study and reading / Lyman Abbott -- The purpose of reading / John Macy -- How to get the best out of books / Richard Le Gallienne -- The guide to daily reading / Asa Don Dickinson.
