Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Eighteenth Century Waifs, Vol. 1 of 1 It was probably Solomon, who, in Ecclesiastes, cap. 12, v. 12, said, ´Of making many books there is no end.´ But, if this book had to have been written by him, he might, probably, have modified his opinion. I have read some books in my life-time, re the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries, and therefore was not taken aback when I was advised by a learned friend, whom I consulted as to the subject of a new book, to try the ´Musgrave Tracts,´ in the British Museum. I thanked him, and wrote for them, when I was politely asked, ´Did I want them all?´ ´Of course, was my reply; when I was told, with the courtesy that particularly distinguishes the establishment, that I had better come into an inner room, and have them down shelf by shelf. The books came in a continuous stream, until I asked if there were any more. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
