The Love Of Books
by De Bury, Richard
There’s something particularly delightful about curling up in a ball and sipping hot tea as you become absorbed in a book. A good book can make you laugh and make you cry within a series of pages. It can transport you to other dimensions and inspire you. Philobiblon is a treasure for book lovers. Richard de Bury divulges his passion for books as he explains the importance of books and education and provides instruction for the execution of the library he wished to build at Oxford.
