More than just a travel memoir, this book is a behind-the-scenes
glimpse inside the antique book trade. Hurdling from one anecdote
to the next, Bill Rees regales readers with his many adventures
selling valuable books. From finding a first edition on a Parisian
pub shelf to opening a store in Paris and trading rare titles with
big names like Ian McEwan and Alan Sillitoe, this account is packed
with amusing narrative. Driven by the joys and trials of the
author's literary pursuit, the landscape of this quirky journey
ranges from a small bookshop in Montpelier to a private library in
Morocco, while the life path and story presented are a
one-of-a-kind find.
