Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Among My Autographs There are no half-hours in my library so pleasant as those in which I go to the bookshelves that hold my little collection of first or early editions, the value of most of them enhanced for me by the autograph of the author, which I have been able to insert in the prized volume. To embellish a good book with the letter of the man who gave it to the world has been a delight of mine from my youth upwards. The hand that wrote the lines I read has been cold in the grave this many a year, but the words on the faded note-paper are still as the master penned them, and often they give a truer index to the man than all he wrote for print and reread and corrected as he passed it for press. Even where no clue to character is contained in the author´s letter, there are little everyday details and incidents which reveal in a few lines more than all the pages of the professional biographer.
