I had forgottten I wanted to read it as well.

I ask because my copy of 'The Haunted Bookshop' is beautifully illustrated by an artist named Douglas Gorsline. It just adds to the charm of the book. <BR/><BR/>I hadn't heard of Christopher Morley until about 6 years years ago when a former co-worker gave the book to me as a gift, because he new I adored books about books. He found it at a library book sale. How anyone could give up such a treasure is beyond me, but their loss is definitely my temendous gain!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
